Daffodils don't do well down where we live because it doesn't get cold enough. But up in the mountains where they get snow and freezing temperatures they can do well.

These gardens are tended by a coupe that have been doing this at this location since 1958. I'm not sure when they decided to open it to the public though.

The area has been ravaged by fire a few times but the gardens persist.

There are many benches scattered around the gardens to just sit and enjoy the flowers.
