Mount Hood Daffodil



(This picture can be enlarged by clicking on it. Clicking a second time will make it full-sized.)

Most of the daffodils in our yard have yellow petals with trumpets of different colors. Mount Hood is the only daffodil we have with both white petals and a white trumpet. The trumpet gets more white with age.

I don't think I've ever seen white on white.
I really like how you got into the center of this one.
Beautiful!

Muito linda, amo flores.

Páscoa é renascer.
É ser de novo.
Agora é o tempo de aniquilar a rotina.
Por isso seja de novo!
Feliz recomeçar!
Feliz Páscoa!

It seems to me that we have had more of the White Daffodils this year, but it could just be lack of noticing in the past. Hope you have a happy and blessed Easter.
