It sounds crazy but I think it's the scent that it ruins... they were pretty adamant about it so I have to believe them but now I have to believe you so I'm going to be looking it up.
Thank you lovely. ❤
#MarketFriday loves you!
I've never heard of that but I can't have tulips in the ground or containers, darn rabbit and deer, so daffs for us (they are highly poisonous so the animals are smart enough to be leary of them.) tho there are some variety of tulips that I find the scent SO intoxicating, like the heady Christmas scent of paper whites.
Sadly I didn't have time to do a #Marketfriday today ah well , next week.
Some have an intoxicating scent!! It is true and even though hyacinths are overpowering, wafting through the yard, it is a truly lovely scent. I have rabbits breeding in my garden beds, for real!
Deer are here but only as a run-through, they don't stay. There was actually a bear this spring, although that is highly unusual. This close to the city, but, there is much-wooded area in and around DC.
No worries about #MarketFriday! I am always appreciative of all the ones you do!!! Thank you!
#MarketFriday loves you!
Daffodils do secrete a sap when they are cut and it can shorten the vase life of other blooms.
There you go ... beware of severed daffodils. I suppose another way to look at it is that they speed up decomposition and production of soil. It is vase that is problem.
From now on they will get their own vase:)
Haha! Yes! A vase of a problem. :)
