I saw this beautiful white wildflower along one of the trails here on Cape Cod and did some research to find out that it is a Pheasant Eye Narcissus. I had never seen one before. Have you?

I thought the yellow and red center was just exquisite; what do you think?

First Spring Daffodil In Our Yard On Cape Cod

April 15, 2018 Mel 2 Comments

We looked out into our yard yesterday as we were clearing winter brush and branches, and there was a yellow Daffodil right in the middle of the woods. What a treat! I had to walk out to see what it was.

So here is a macro of its beauty and one so you can see how far into the woods it grew without a lot of sunshine.
I thought this would be a fun blog today in that winter has been soooo long and yesterday felt like the first day of spring. And the forecast for today is for sleet and freezing rain with temps in the 30s… Brrrr.
