Well in my case I'm recovering from serious calf surgery 2 weeks ago... I have (2) 12-13 INCH incisions, one each side of the calf
and I'll still be on crutchesfor afew more weeks...
BUT
My wife's 1300 bulb plantings are starting to spring up...(nope not exaggerating)
SO
Micro-daffodils!

Nurses rule!! (I'll trust a nurse before I'd trust a doctor)
