Comments (7)We have a few daffs that grow next to the driveway (they were there before we moved in). They look rather awkward where they are in comparison to the rest of the yard. I keep meaning to transplant them to the lily garden, but just haven't gotten around to it yet.

Much to his chagrin, they always come right back in full force, it seems, in just a few weeks (their way of sticking their tongue out at him)! Tee! Hee! Come to think of it...maybe I won't transplant them! They are my saving grace by keeping my SO occupied and away from my other beauties!

Comments (12)Thanks for letting me know that, kitasei2. I would have spun my wheels trying to get them sharpened. Sure, I guess they would work fine on my boxwood. I'll try that. But grass is what I tried cutting with them. I guess that would have to be scissors then. [g]...See Morewoodyoak zone 5 southern Ont., Canada
