Lake District Daffodils
The Lake District daffodils have been slow to appear this year. Cold weather and snow have held them back, However, in the last few days yellow buds are opening up everywhere. I’ve written lots of articles and blog posts about daffodils in the past. Here are some links if you would like to take a look.
