Narcissus - Las Vegas



Originally uploaded by fnkymnky



I recall planting about 8 of these narcissus bulbs last October but only 4 actually survived. In early February, raccoons went through all my pots, looking for grub I guess. They uncovered almost all my bulbs and this pot must have been one of the victims. These are two of the four flowers that survived. They're beautiful. White petals and yellow cups, reminds me of breakfast. :) This inspires me to seek other types of narcissus for next year.

These daffodils are in 10" inch containers and sit in an area of the deck that gets morning and afternoon sun. They seem happy here. I haven't had to water them, almost daily rain through Winter and Spring and that has been sufficient.
