Devon Daffodils in the wild

Here in this ancient woodland, not too far from Buckfast Abbey; Wild Daffodils grow in proffusion. In this woodland they occour in vast patches, but most of the woods has none, although I make a point of adding some to currently unpopulated parts of this and other woods, as I detour cross-country, back to the carpark, with my bouty.

I really only need to collect them from where they are slighty trampled on foot paths, or where many clumps are competeing for light and space. Clumps are broken up and mixed up as much as possible, to decrease the likleyhood of clones or closly related plants being planted right next to each other.

  1. Very interesting. Seems like a long process. And what are the white fowers in between?
