Papi Jo · 6 January

Hi fellow gardeners! Our calendars have turned to a new year... and our gardens have turned a new leaf.

I'm opening this new discussion so we can post lots of illustrative pics of our gardens. I'm starting with pics taken this very morning.

Thank you @Papi Jo. Looks as though you have daffodils in bud already! My first ones in Dordogne are only about 3 inches tall. Parts of my garden are like a bog after all the rain so gardening has been quite difficult. I'm behind, compared with last year. I have heeled in bare root roses in the vegetable garden waiting to be planted. When I moved to this house 3 years ago there were only 3 roses, now I have 44.

Various Euphorbias, Sarcococca digyna and Camellia are the best highlights here at the moment. Thank you for getting the Gallery going again @Papi Jo !

After the successful removal of the metal in my shoulder, I'm able to take pictures with my Pentax again. I had to wait 4,5 months for that. Such a relief.

My garden looks scrappy, but this is intentional. Apart from the Zinnia, everything else remained more or less. Some of the flowers fall or stems break because they are dried out.

While walking through the garden, I found this fella in a dried out Echinacea stem. I covered it with other leaves to protect it from the cold nights this week.

The Lilac tree looks good.

The daffodils should be ready mid March.

we hit -6C in north London last night. I'm glad I decide to rush out and fleece lots yesterday. The temp low matched the lowest recorded here last year. It seems that much of the UK is frosted or snowy for a few days. Any pics to share? Stay warm. ❄️

We had a light snowfall during the night @Fire, but it was still warm at about +4C 😎. It's melting now though, here's some shots of the thaw 🌤️

The garden has cheered up today with sun lighting up the remains of various grasses, the stag horn like branches of a Catalpa, plus a defrosted Polyanthus.

Very odd my daffies came out a couple of weeks ago before my snow drops which have just appeared in my front garden which surprises all the passers by myself included.

LunarSea · 17 January

Yeah, we've got Camassias through before Snowdrops or Daffs!
