Most of the older homesteads around the area where I live have hardy heirloom flowers growing here and there that have been around for well over a hundred years.
One of them is a large “double” yellow daffodil…growing much like any other, except that the flowers have multiple layers of petals.
One of my garden club friends had them growing on her farm and I got permission to dig up a clump to establish at my house.
That was around fifteen years ago and, since then, they produced only one or two sporadic blooms.
I determined they must not like where I put them, so last fall I moved a clump to an area that gets full sun.
I checked them yesterday and ….VOILA!!! Flower buds!! (I counted six so far)
