Visiting St Ives on Saturday I wasn’t expecting to see daffodils for sale on the harbour-side. Buckets full of golden beauties and these double white spicy scented Narcissus Acropolis variety. The two bunches I came away with both have deep orange-red centres and are absolutely beautiful. This collage is for my friend who enjoys photographing flowers in decay – Sue Judd.
Earth laughs in flowers 
Spring is in the air…. wonderful images, Jude.
I miss all these lovely spring flowers, sadly I cannot grow them here. But then I guess I can grow lots of other tropical things that you can’t.
Yes, our shared gardens should bring joy to both of us 😀
Definitely.
Glorious Jude – ’tis the season and thank goodness for that!
Lovely photos. I don’t know what it is about daffodils but I have never yet managed a good photo! What’s your secret? 😉
Have a good camera? Or get close.
Very Pretty. My father was born in Newquay and I have an Aunt who still lives in Cornwall. Nice part of the world.
It’s not a bad place to be in 🙂
They certainly are Jude ! My garden varieties are pretty much over and bluebells have taken centre stage along with spreading grape hyacinths . Must have been gorgeous down by the harbour with those buckets of Cornish daffs vying for attention – and buying thereof !
Cornwall has enjoyed some beautifully warm Spring sunshine just recently , perfect for flinging open those windows – or perhaps not ….
…well, windows are flung, but then the overpowering smell of the cattle next door invades so they get shut again. I’m sure we’ll get used to it, but I’m beginning to think I smell of manure myself now! The daffodils certainly help 😀
Beautiful spring flowers! Nice virtual tour – thanks for sharing. Bye. Kamila
I miss daffodils (haven’t seen one since my last northern hemisphere ‘spring’ in 2012) but at least I can enjoy them virtually here.
Not sure I could live without daffodils, though I guess I did when I lived in South Africa! You just get used to the flora around you.
Very true – I am lucky t have different flora and fauna in front of me now and daffodils will be there when I return home
