Because of their reliability and deer resistance I-ve become daffodil obsessed! I-m adding more all planting season long and try to plan the planting before a rain. I-ve read that they aren-t very attractive to early spring pollinators, but wondered if you-ve found (or are aware of) any types that might be best for this. Also, the poeticus types, and especially Actaea, are my current favorites. But there are so many lovely ones out there and I-m so happy to see them in spring, that -favorite- will probably end up meaning whichever is currently blooming -

An interesting historical note: Roman soldiers used to carry narcissus bulbs into battle in case they were mortally wounded. They would eat the (poisonous) bulbs tomato for a fast death. Their toxicity is what keeps all kinds of would-be pests from dining on them, including rodents!

Daffodils announce spring. I love them for braving uncertain weather, for their vibrancy, and for their return year after year.

I was so happy to see a new video! I love daffodils because they are usually the first to come up at our house. Merry Christmas!
