Daphne - which variety to choose
The best one, I find, is D. bholua "Jacqueline Postill". The scent goes all the way out to our road and passing walkers are always commenting on it.

Things that have made you happy today 2026
I saw a blackbird while walking. It landed a half a meter in front of me on a stone wall. It’s the first time since 2024 that I saw one again.
