This is both lovely and amazing! Daffodils are still flowering in the lanes
here, though some of them are dying back and the white pheasant eye ones are
in full fig. Violets, primroses and bluebells are all vying for attention
and the hedgerows look good enough to eat!

I think the difference this year is that the Daffs have flowered more
gradually instead of all at once. We have some dying back, some in full
bloom and even some buds yet to come out

Pretty much as we found here, Jeanne, even allowing for varietal
differences.

Very few of our Daffodils have started dying back yet, most are at their
peak with a few only flowering this week.

Taken as a whole, they have a very long flowering season, with some
varieties starting in Feb and others not flowering till April/May. So
anyone who grows a variety can easily have flowers at all stages at
once.
