Every year August 31, is daffodil day. The cancer society sell bunches fresh daffodils and/or one artificial daffodil when you give money. This is in New Zealand.
Trompie looking at a bed of daffodils
To Daffodils
Fair Daffodils, we weep to see
You haste away so soon;
As yet the early-rising sun
Has not attain’d his noon.
Stay, stay,
Until the hasting day
Has run
But to the even-song;
And, having pray’d together, we
Will go with you along.
We have short time to stay, as you,
We have as short a spring;
As quick a growth to meet decay,
As you, or anything.
We die
As your hours do, and dry away
Like to the summer’s rain;
Or as the pearls of morning’s dew,
Ne’er to be found again.

Lovely pictures and post…not a flower person myself, well not growing, but they can produce fab pictures.;)
Flowers are my favorite because they stand still and you can move them where you want them! I am also not a big gardener but when there are flowers I feel very proud when they are mine.
I love flowers and Daffodils were my mother in laws favourite, , she loved the bunch my daughter bought for her when she was ill, this is a lovely idea for Daffodil Day. 🙂
Daffodils are my favorite too! They also smell lovely.
