The exif stems from a heavy overcast (It is now raining.)? The subject 
is a little more complex. Sometime in the 1950s or early 60s, my sister 
gave my Mother some hybrid Jonquils or Daffodils ( I can't distinguish 
the difference.)? When we built this house in 1967, it was time to thin 
out the hybrids, and my Mother shared them with my wife.? A few show up 
from time to time, as they did today. At that point in time, hybrids 
were not nearly as sophisticated as they are today.? A large wad of 
petals was was about the extent of it.
