Love and larceny

Right in broad daylight, somebody snipped all the open Ice Follies daffodils that were beautifying the front yard. They were there in the morning, gone by suppertime. This is not the first Valentine's Day happening of this sort. These flowers are often open for February 14. They usually go overnight, either the evening before or the evening of Valentine's Day. Somebody's sweetheart is a real loser. "L'amour, l'amour," as one of The Women says.

That's just unbelievable. Now I feel perfectly justified in lining my front fence with that yucca called "Spanish Sword" or is it "Spanish daggers"? Anyway it's sharp and ain't likely that anyone will try to steal it.

My "Ice Follies" started blooming on the 17th this year. Of all the narcissus, they seem the most reliable here in Austin. They don't seem to require the cold spell that some bulbs require.
