Winter cheer

As grey January (following grey December and grey November) merges into grey February, I really need to see flowers. I splashed out on a bouquet from Waitrose:



picked these from the garden for nothing.



I’m mean about picking garden flowers as I like to see them where they’re growing.
I have cheap daffs as well; they’re a pound a bunch in the shops now. I see that a few are flowering already in my neighbours’ garden.
Which would you choose?
