If you read my post carefully, keeping in mind that I'm an honest chap, then it will be obvious that I considered the above and hence typed that one might reasonably expect him to write, "like these". He may have preferred, "such as these".
Instead he made two statements that, taken on their own merit, indicate he was posting a picture of his daffodils.
And you might notice that I included the web address of the seed catalog company.

If you keep your expectations low enough, you'll never be disappointed. (Works for me.)
People who are wrong are just as sure they're right as people who are right. The only difference is, they're wrong.

Speaking as a scientist with long flowing locks I am inclined to think that male pattern baldness is a way of god marking those he especially does not like.

yrs,
rubato
But it didn't look like a yard - more like a public park. Or from Vanengelen. com/catalog... you might think he'd put "like these"
My guess is, drugs
First of all I did not claim that was my yard in any way. The picture was to illustrate King Alfred daffodils as someone already noted. And secondly I thought it was so obviously a public park or garden that saying so was unnecessary except for the sake of tiresome pedants.
Those are very nice daffodils but I don't plant quite that many of any one thing.
I usually plant a dozen Broughshane (not a picture of my yard) which aren't blooming yet.
And some Holland Sensation (not a picture of my yard):
And when I can find them some Irene Copeland (not a picture of my yard);
There are also a lot of Earlicheer from Bill the Bulb Baron which naturalize very well
These (Bibi gladiolus) won't bloom for months yet but they seem to naturalize well (not a picture of my yard);
I usually plant a dozen Broughshane (not a picture of my yard) which aren't blooming yet.
Would you be so kind as to share a photo of them when they do?

Girls have been showing up in my yard for the past month. The one with the bicycle is hot:

Sheesh, that's dangerous, riding barefoot and with so little protection against exposure to the sun. And that chain is definitely in need of some TLC from a competent mechanic or repairman.
Send her my way, Meade. I'll take good care of things and make sure she doesn't hurt herself. -"BB"-
Yes, I suppose I could agree with you ... but then we'd both be wrong, wouldn't we?
The force that through the green fuse drives the flower
Drives my green age; that blasts the roots of trees
Is my destroyer.
And I am dumb to tell the crooked rose
My youth is bent by the same wintry fever.
The force that drives the water through the rocks
Drives my red blood; that dries the mouthing streams
Turns mine to wax.
And I am dumb to mouth unto my veins
How at the mountain spring the same mouth sucks.
The hand that whirls the water in the pool
Stirs the quicksand; that ropes the blowing wind
Hauls my shroud sail.
And I am dumb to tell the hanging man
How of my clay is made the hangman’s lime.
The lips of time leech to the fountain head;
Love drips and gathers, but the fallen blood
Shall calm her sores.
And I am dumb to tell a weather’s wind
How time has ticked a heaven round the stars.
And I am dumb to tell the lover’s tomb
How at my sheet goes the same crooked worm.

It always ends up being about penises for you, doesn't it?
