I love daffodils! I had them all over my yard up north. The squirrels don't like the taste of the bulbs so I knew I would be blessed with a glorious display in the spring.
Jeannie, that is so wonderful of your hubby to remember to do this, for forty years, no less! I'm so happy for you because he must love you a lot to continue "courting" you with flowers. I know you are enjoying them.
