First time I've had a look on here for this year - some great photos. All those snowdrops in flower - lovely. The ordinary ones have only just started appearing in gardens here in the last week or so, which is early. Mine are a later variety, but have buds on them, which is much earlier than usual too. Your Phormium looks a damn sight healthier than all of mine @Papi Jo I think I've lost most of mine, but I'll have to wait and see.
One of the little White Lady hellebores I moved a while ago. It's decided to face completely the wrong way so I had to turn it to get a pic. Hopefully the other buds will be more obliging
A division of one of the Blue Lady plants. At least the vine weevils haven't managed to completely destroy them - just some foliage
The others all just have buds so far.
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
Some pics of the day... while waiting for some welcome rain, after the driest rainless spell in winter for many years here in France.
Helleborus x Frostkiss® Glenda's Gloss®
Spiraea thunbergii 'Fujino Pink' in full bloom at the moment!
Last autumn I planted a big bag of daffodils (can't remember the species) and got fed up towards the end. So a few bulbs ended up on the ground, not buried in holes.
Right now, the earliest daff to show signs of flowering is one of those "abandonned" bulbs, which seems to show that they don't care...
It’s good to see some more photos here. I’ve lost quite a few plants this winter, but it’s been quite mild here recently and lots of the surviving plants have started to grow.
