Ooooh, wonderful spring flowers everyone. Some lovely daffs in your mixed bag @Eustace, I'd be really pleased with them.
Smashing spring bulb display @AnniD, and I love your little path @Plantminded, I'd quite like to follow it
You do have some rather special spring bulbs @pitter-patter, I always look to see what you've got Have added Eaton Song and Carice to my daff list (I start planning early while I can see the spaces )
Early Selection
LLanfair, slightly less pink more salmon in real life

This is my junk area, if anyone had a question about the junk , this year decorated with a bag of mixed Ice Follies. I'm pretty chuffed they are an actual mix and they all flowered together, I had visions of the opposite.
Carice is definitely a chameleon. The trumpet starts completely yellow, then it gradually turns salmon, starting with a little edge and progressing until all the trumpet is transformed. Short sturdy stems. Would look beautiful in a small pot I imagine.
The elegant Petrel. I admire the green pointy buds even before the flowers open.
It's so lovely to see the spring flowers, they're all so cheerful. I've taken to walking around the garden each evening now after work - should be weeding really, but it is just so nice to see the buds opening day by day.

That's my white patch @Papi Jo, although it's often more creamy yellowish.
I just spotted the insect as I bent totake the photo, a really pretty one. Lots of bees buzzing about too and some butterflies. I do hope the expected cold snap doesn't see them off.
As ever your garden looks amazing, I am sure you must have a military background, all your plants behave themselves so well.

Another one of the many pot displays my wife has thrown together
This miniature cherry was a gift from years ago that was thrown into a plastic pot and spends most of the year looking less than spectacular, but once a year it really shines
Clay soil - Cheshire/Derbyshire border. I play with plants and soil and sometimes it's successful
