Blimey, what a storm in a teacup. I used to pick daffodils for a living (until I lost all my work to Eastern European immigrants, who were unaware I might add, that local people were losing work to them). Anyway, daffodils need to be regularly picked or they will grow less and less each year. Picking them actually encourages vigorous growth the following year. Are none of you gardeners? The people picking them probably dont know they're doing you a favour but there you are. Also it is NOT illegal to pick flowers, only to dig up and remove the bulb/root. Likening picking flowers to 'vandalism' is just laughable, and suggesting it's an insult to the dead just plain weird.
