    No sign of my snowdrops yet but I have two Hellebores showing the colour of their flower buds. Quite a few bulbs breaking the surface, mainly daffodils but some tulips. Was given a box of mixed colour iris reticulata for Christmas so popped them into a pot outside today. Hopefully they will flower.
  • I've got snowdrops, tulips and dafs popping up by no sign of any flowering just yet.

    Well, as if they knew we were talking about them the first snowdrop popped open today. That is a particularly early clump though, and the others are a way off. Saw first two hellebores today too and something else white that I did not investigate. Might have been narcissus but honestly cannot remember what I planted in that direction.

    Snowdrops and hellebores doing well now but was surprised to see this early fellow while out earlier

    Some violets here from that bit of sun last week I think, but the frost in the last couple of days and the cold to come will probably end all that.

    My rubarb was really starting well, but again the frost seems to have hit it hard, at least with RB you know it will bounce back no problem.

  • Got some tulips in a pot broke the surface, but this recent bad weather will probably set them back again. Also got some primroses in a pot which are doing they best they've ever done.
    No sign of my snowdrops or crocuses in the ground yet thankfully. They can stay snug until the Spring. Gives me something to look forward to :o
