The garden is construct around a beautiful lake , and as I arrived there were clunk of daffodil along the body of water and beautiful views to be had .

And then looking across the water , I saw large stripes and splashes of color . Hmm . . . substantially go see what that is .

Upon connect with the other side of the lake , I encounteredjust a fewdaffodils ! The dissimilar varieties are engraft in large blocks and rivers , making really dramatic display .

I ’m always pull to unclouded - colour daffodils for some reason . I love these with white petal environ a glowering orange cup .

This soft yellow was possibly my favorite of them all . It reminds me of the variety ‘ boyfriend Favorite ’ , though I ’m not sure if that is what it is . I did n’t see a label with the cultivar name , but the gentle lemon yellowness just glowed on this cloudy bounce Clarence Day .

The Narcissus pseudonarcissus made a golden river along the edge of this path . Just sorcerous !
