Throwback Thursday: Daffodil day
"A host of golden daffodils .... fluttering and dancing in the breeze," so wrote the poet William
Wordsworth.
But he would have found it impossible to "wander lonely as a cloud" at the Christchurch Botanic Gardens on September 19, 1948.
A Sunday stroll in the gardens has long been a ritual for Christchurch folk but the daffodil lawn has attracted more than the usual crowds this Sunday. It is the 10th anniversary of the annual Daffodil Day observance.
