It has been pretty cold and gray here in Austin, Texas in the last couple of days and I couldn’t help but thinking that the weather is mimicking the state of the world. But these forced tête-à-tête daffodils brought a ray of sunshine into my days and I hope they do this for you as well! On another note, I am very busy right now and didn’t have the time to answer to all of your comments in a timely fashion. So I am asking you to bear with me, I am doing my best! Wishing you a nice rest of the day! 🇺🇦💙💛🕊🌻💔🙏 #organicgardendreams #têteàtête #teteatete #teteatetedaffodils #têteàtêtedaffodils #yellowdaffodils #yellowflowers #yellowflower #flowerphotography #forceddaffodils #gardening #austintexasgardener #centraltexasgardener #centraltexasgardening #inmygarden #inmygardentoday #instaflowers #flowersofinstagram #flowerlover #flowerlovers #austingardening #austingarden #austingardens #centraltexasgarden #thejoyofflowers #flowersbringjoy (at Austin, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/Ca5MfkcOT0h/?utm_medium=tumblr

With so many sad things going on in the world I want to send out as much beauty as I can here on my Instagram account in the hope that it brings a smile to someone’s face and maybe even a ray of hope. We had a tornado warning here in Austin on Monday, which I never expected to happen, and after 45 minutes sheltering with our dogs in a coat closet under a staircase in the middle of our house the warning was lifted and nothing happened in our direct neighborhood. Unfortunately, Round Rock, a small town close by famous for its antique fairs, wasn’t that lucky. They experienced a tornado touchdown and with that quite a bit of damage but to my knowledge no lives were lost. My heart goes out to the residents of Round Rock! With the weather patterns creating the tornado came some much needed rain to Austin and my garden starts to green up a little. No open daffodils yet, but different from a week ago I can now see some daffodil flower stalks coming up. Much less than I planted though, which is a bit disappointing, but I can’t wait for these to open up. The tête-à-tête daffodils and tulips that you see in this photo were forced bulbs from the grocery store. So worth buying for me since I am longing for some cheerful blooms in my garden so badly! Wishing all of you a lovely rest of the week! 🇺🇦💙💛🕊💔🌻 #organicgardendreams #têteatête #teteatetedaffodils #têteàtêtedaffodils #tulips #forcedbulbs #redandyellow #redandyellowtulips #gardening #garden #gardens #austingardener #centraltexasgardeners #austingarden #centraltexasgarden #centraltexasgardening #joyofsmallthings #thebeautyofflowers #cheerfulflowers #blooms #flowers #flowerphotography #flowerlove #flowerlover #beauty #thebeautyofflowers #daffodils (at Austin, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/CbdEFlDODo6/?utm_medium=tumblr

Tete-a-tete daffodils are my favorite spring bloomers. Unfortunately, I couldn’t plant the bulbs in autumn because I didn’t even have a garden at that time, but I was lucky enough to buy forced Tete-a-tete bulbs in pots at Traeder Joe’s (USA grocery chain) and planted them outside in the garden. I know that is kind of cheating but I don’t care, they brought me lots of joy and it was totally worth for me. Then last week we had a hot spell and the temperature suddenly jumped up to around 90 F/32 C followed by severe thunderstorms with incredible much rain and that did my Tete-a-Tetes in. Either they succumbed to heat shock or they drowned or both. I tell you, the weather here in Austin is wild and not easy on the plants! Anyway, I am still happy that I planted and enjoyed them as long as they lasted. Hopefully the bulbs survive. In any case, this autumn I will definitely buy bulbs and grow my own Tete-a-tetes and other daffodil varieties properly! Do you have Tete-a-tetes still blooming in your garden? Wishing you all a lovely Sunday! . . . #teteatete #têteàtête #tete-a-tete #teteatetedaffodil #teteatetedaffodils #têteàtêtedaffodils #yellow #daffodils #daffodil #yellowflowers #miniaturedaffodils #miniaturedaffodils #austin #texas #gardening #spring #springflowers #springbulbs #gardening #privategarden #springbloomers #springblooms #traderjoes (at Austin, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_KidpOg9BS/?igshid=1ks0h4wpsrr6r
