I love your mailbox! Ours is pretty large too - and it requires a key to access the contents, which says something about the world we live in. My daffodils are peaking at the moment, after finally getting several days here and there with warmer temperatures. I hope yours follow suit.
ReplyDeleteLooks like just barely spring where you are. The Daffs are so bright and cheerful--they must lift the spirits of passers by--and the mail carriers--on cloudy days.
ReplyDeleteMailbox is great--you never know when you'll need to mail order a new plant, and its best to be prepared!
Here we're several weeks later than last year. I'm fine with that--not looking forward to dry, hot weather.
The Daffs look great along the fence... so have you marked the spots for either more bulbs or Hellebores?
