First daffodils in Yeovil, Somerset UK


Wordsworth woz 'ere..., originally uploaded by elb_the_prof.

We love the story behind this photograph by elb_the_prof, taken January 4 in Yeovil, Somerset UK: I couldn't believe my eyes when I spotted these VERY early daffodils this afternoon... So gobsmacked was I that I had to turn the car round so I could come back and take a quick snap.

The professor adds: I'm not a horticulturalist, so have no information about these daffodils other than the fact that even here in the UK, it's far too early for them!

Wow, that is early. Sometimes it is where you locate them in the micro-climate. That brick wall is probably helping keep the soil a little warmer.
