    That Euonymus looks more like a Burkwood osmanthus to me. Flower in pic.#2 looks gorgeous indeed.

    You're welcome. I have one specimen which is healthy & growing nicely but has very few flowers. Disappointing. :(

    A taste of Spring this morning, with the Cherry Plum in blossom.

    The blossom is gorgeous AuntyRach - we don't have anything so grand although your pictures remind me of my late parents beautiful garden.
    Just a few of my pots, it is the best time of year for them - I exchange these pots for summer flowering filled pots in April or May.

    I absolutely love Daffodils and that pot arrangement is delightful  @Guernsey Donkey2.

    Crocuses are now in full bloom.


    Still no frogspawn in the pond but there are plenty of newts waiting to eat any spawn.



    I’m particularly proud of this apple tree. It’s Annie Elizabeth and friends of mine own the original in their house in suburban Leicester. This is a graft from that tree.

    What a lovely reminder of your friends with this apple tree Annie Elizabeth, does it bare fruit in the Autumn? The crocus look beautiful - all the same colour, ours are a hotchpotch of purple and yellow, these white ones really stand out.  The crocus are looking their best this year - they hate the normal wind and rain that knocks them down before they have had a chance to mature.  The bees love them.

    Lovely photos folks, love the yellow snowdrops.  The crocuses have done really well this year.

    They are glorious @Yviestevie - the first ones look almost ultra-violet.

    Fabulous crocuses, folks!   

    Runnybeak, your double yellow-skirted snowdrop is really pretty... and I think the bottom photo is a Leucojum, a spring snowflake.   :)
