I found this hill of Daffodils at Cave Hill Cemetery in Louiville, Kentucky (USA).
Did you know that daffodills share one third (1/3) of our DNA? (National Geographic Report)

The third they share must be the suppressed third...

Wow beautiful....and a great low pov...

On second thought ~ the Magnolia has larger white blossoms, so this is one of the Tulip trees that bloom early (2 to 3 inch pedals) and frequent Kentucky and Indiana (USA). Magnolia grows here, too, though it is most prevalent in the lower Southern states.

Very beautiful floral shot. Vote

The pink blossoms are either a Magnolia or one of the Tulip trees that have the same color blossom, but bigger, tulip shaped blooms (the flowers are glorious but short-lived).
Yvonne04-Apr-2009 02:08
Oh how delightful, they're absolutely gorgeous Carol!!!
carol j. phipps04-Apr-2009 02:06
LOL! I, too, have wondered "which third" of the DNA. It is all so interesting.
Cindi Smith04-Apr-2009 01:55
I'm not related to a Daff but God made them and me so he may have used some of our DNA...I think we all share some. Love this shot, btw....very beautiful! and btw...I'm not related to monkeys either even if I act like one every now and then! LOL!
Coleen Perilloux Landry04-Apr-2009 01:54
Gorgeous, glorious. Did not know that they share one-third of our DNA-which third?
Mindy McNaugher04-Apr-2009 01:38
Absolutely gorgeous!! Can't wait for the blooms in Pittsburgh!
