I also read today that the extreme cold weather has delayed England's daffodil season by up to four weeks. In previous years our garden was filled to over-flowing with bright yellow blooms by early March. However, this year the bulbs are still struggling to make their presence known and none have yet flowered. The trees are also bare, whereas two years ago most were smothered in blossom by this date. In fact, this winter has been so sodden and cold that a couple of smaller trees in the backyard simply toppled over last month rather than burst into blossom.
