I guess the spring in Europe has many facets. It all depends on the latitude. So while the Mediterranean climate countries enjoy more hot and sunny afternoons, further north the picture may be different. The fact is that March is almost always marks the arrival of the station and as ambassadors of the season, appearing in the gardens a distinctive yellow flowers. The or daffodils daffodils bloom in this month and mark, with a must at every British court, the end of winter. However, the daffodil is actually the national flower of Wales and the Welsh the exhibit when they go out in the celebrations of St. David's Day (March 1).
For those who come from tropical regions where the four stations are hardly noticeable, these yellow flowers can be included in the category of alien. While one distinguishes fast I do not think exist in nature Cuban similar examples. On the island, of course, many daffodils, but the vast majority belong to the animal kingdom. In my case I always knew that the name derived from a flower, but I never ran into it and if I ignored it because of ignorance.
This spring has arrived earlier than usual, perhaps as evidence that global warming is more than a collection of alarmist messages about environmental degradation, or the new emblem of the struggle for political power. Flowers bring a special supplement to the landscape and one receives them with a little ESPERAZA. The contrast between the green of the sunlit grass, stems, leaves and the yellow of daffodils , prevents them from going unnoticed.
And the flowers are everywhere, even seems that at this time define the authenticity of the gardens. A year ago talking to one of my mentors, a New Yorker who has spent over 40 years based in Britain, and she told me of his joy in the spring, the time is now destined for your plants, pots and transplanted to review new outbreaks. In his garden, he told me proudly, preferring the thoughts and hydrangeas, rhododendrons also call here, and imaginary showed me how they had flourished in that March. And as I have no doubt that his experience gardener told me, and of course my "daffs", you know, are a real gem.
From that day also named them, "daffs", in a more familiar. Anyway, these yellow flowers are already part of my memories, so do not bother because they change the name or better, because he "cut" affectionately.
