@Fire I have never been luck enough to go to Sissinghurst but years ago I met Troy Scott Smith together with his team this crocus had become a real battle. Looks like they are still digging it up by the bucketful!
I have worked as a Gardener for 24 years. My latest garden is a new build garden on heavy clay.
Great photos @Fire — I need to visit those gardens! Love the photo of the bird, is it a robin?
Got to see the specialist snowdrop collection at Anglesey Abbey last week, on the last day of the behind-the-scenes tour (of the snowdrops not normally accessible to the public); this is the first batch of photos.
Galanthus elwesii 'Jubilee Green'
Galanthus elwesii 'Mandarin'
Galanthus plicatus 'Trymlet'
Galanthus nivalis 'Lady Elphinstone
Galanthus plicatus 'Lambrook Greensleeves'
Galanthus plicatus 'The Linns'
Galanthus plicatus 'Madelaine'
I think this is Galanthus elwesii 'Cedric's Prolific'
Sorry for more photos... from the Thriplow Daffodil Weekend last Sunday, when more than 500,000 daffodils are timed to bloom in the village of Thriplow in Cambridgeshire
This one is Jersey Star, but I didn't get the names of the other daffodils
