...not much... Daphne, as mentioned on another thread... Camellia 'St Ewe', the first of my 4 Camellias to flower... hated by Monty Don..loved by me...
Iberis sempervirens...the first to flower this year... Sarcococca...Erysimum... that's about it... no Hellebores in my garden, currently...
There are crocuses out on the roadsides and roundabouts in the city, but not here in my garden yet. Neither are my little irises out yet, but my hellebores are - niger and orientalis
I fully expect dandelions and hawkbit to make an appearance on my front lawn very soon - I shall have to remove them as the neighbour downwind of me got his groundsman (can't call him a gardener) to make an effort to remove the ones from his lawn last summer
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
What lovely pix DD. Where is the location? My crocus aren't out yet but I've lots that aren't far away and I'm looking forward to them.
I agree totally Fleurisa. Not an Iris I care for at all - insipid colour isn't it? I have 'Purple Gem' which are deep purple and I've grown 'Pauline' before which is also very dark.
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
Thankyou. The trees are 35 year old espalier apple trees of various varieties. Its the garden of the owners from Cleeve Nursery (where i work). I was off to feed the cat in the green house and got carried away with the pictures glad you enjoy them
What lovely pictures! I'm envious now - all I have are snowdrops and the primroses are just beginning. We're on a hill so we're always a bit later than other places around here.

My Iris 'Katherine Hodgkin' are all flowering. I don't really like them though, too wishy washy for me
Took these this
morning at work
