Daffodowndillys Down

Despite the dark December evening, Ken, Harry and Anita managed to get 600 'daffodowndillys' planted at The Arcade Rockery and Three Pigeons plot.

A huge thank you to The Metropolitan Garden Association and Taylors of Holbeach for the donation of all these narcissus bulbs: 100 Big Golden Trumpet; 100 Kinglet, 100 Binkie, 100 Salome, 100 Minnow; and 100 tete a tete.

'Daffodowndilly' by A A Milne

She wore her yellow sun-bonnet,

She wore her greenest gown;

She turned to the south wind

And curtsied up and down.

She turned to the sunlight

And shook her yellow head,

And whispered to her neighbour: "Winter is dead."
