Child’s First Daffodils in Bad Soden am Taunus, Germany

Tuesday, January 27th, 2009


Is it spring yet?, originally uploaded by mutti2leif.

We wrote to the photographer, Cathy, to ask about the pair of photos posted from Germany: The first one was taken January 9, the morning after my husband brought them home for my son and me. It’s that point in the winter where you just have to be sure that spring is really on the way. My son, who is 3.5 years old, checked them religiously every day to see the flowers appear. We even measured them to make sure that they had grown.., he didn’t believe me that they were growing.

Daffodil Bulb in Manitoba, Canada

Daffodil Bulb, originally uploaded by Vicky Tate.

Photographer Vicky Tate sends us information about this lush January 15, 2009 photo: This photo was taken in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada in the middle of a a very cold week. I bought some bulbs to brighten up a window sill and remind me of spring.

Vicky also says this about planning for future seasons: If you keep watering the plants until flowers fade and the leaves wither, the bulbs can be planted in a sunny spot in your garden to bloom again next spring.

Daffodil Bulb in Columbia, South Carolina

Daffodil Bulb, originally uploaded by imayle.

This photo was taken on November 28, 2008. How beautiful is that? Curious what exactly a bulb is, we looked it up The Great Plant Escape (thanks, University of Illinois Extension Urban Programs Resource Network).

The photographer imayle tells us: It was taken in Columbia, SC in early december when I was potting up some daffodils that I picked up from walmart… I thought it looked so neat up close, so I took a picture of it. :) I got the variety pack, so I’m not sure exactly which specific type it is.

Is it too early to start talking about spring coming, especially since we haven’t officially started winter?

This photo was taken by missgien, from her balcony in Nijmegen, The Netherlands.
