In the spring time the area where these crinium are blooming is covered in species daffodils. Our low temperatures now for the day start out at 75*F or 24*C. Afternoon highs are hitting 100*F nearly everyday or 38*F in the shade. It was so humid yesterday that everytime I stopped the car and got out to take pictures I had to wait about 10 minutes for the condensation on my camera to evaporate.
One of the biggest problems we have growing daffodils here in Northeast Texas is these high summer temperatures BUT high humidity and high rainfall totals keep our bulbs in the ground steamy hot and wet. We have already gotten more than 7 inches (17.7 CM) of rain this month on top of these 100*F days. Some areas just 60 miles away have gotten over 15 inches (38 CM) this month. Keith Kridler Mt.
