Crazy Weather!

It poured rain, hailed, snowed, and then the sun popped out, and then started all over again. I had to drive to Vancouver, WA to look at a patio dining set that I wanted to buy from someone on FaceBook Marketplace. It was excellent so I paid her and drove home in the pouring rain and wet snow. I think it will be worth it though - it was a third of the price of a new set. I'll undoubtedly chuckle when I'm relaxing at it this summer thinking of the awful weather. 

Admittedly this is another shot from Sean's garden at Cistus nursery yesterday. I purposely took a few shots today, but they were awful and this is interesting. I edited it today though ;-)

I believe these sweet daffodils are Narcisscus bulbocodium or Petticoat daffodils. The require little, if no, water during their summer dormant months, so a perfect specimen to grow here in western Oregon, as long as you're not irrigating your garden! It's surrounded by a species of double Snowdrops (Crocus Man Tony will undoubtedly know which) and on the left, Cyclamen leaves and Hebe poking through. Another lovely vignette. Notice the gravel through which these plants are growing. Key to success.
