Now for a contrast ) I did a facebook page for my garden and just uploaded a vid of the way it is now. A lot of work to do, makes me feel thoroughly exhausted just looking out the kitchen window at it in the morning. My Garden Video Feb 2015.
I did get to see my snowdrops yesterday as the thaw has finally set in. Hellebores which were looking good, now look rather battered after nearly 3 weeks under snow. No 2015 pics yet as my camera has died. Bracing myself to buy another - it is 10 years old and digital has improved in that time, so don't think a repair is worthwhile long term. But I miss it! See a cloud pattern or a sunset, or a light effect and want to capture it, and I use it all the time to keep tabs on what is going on in the garden. You just couldn't afford to do these things when you had to buy a reel of film with only 36 exposures!

I think it was Victoria Sponge who wanted to see Anna's Red in flower I can't find the hellebore thread
I have snowdrops properly out now and the earliest daffodils are showing buds!
RB, the rest of them aren't in bud yet, just those.
RB, Im on the border of S Staffs and mine aren't that far forward either. (Unless they have sprouted up today while I wasn't looking).
That's lovely KEF - love the green frill - very nice
Thanks for the pic
What lovely photos. Snow drops and Christmas roses are simply stunning.

Brilliant day in the garden, this time in 2013 I had no flowers at all. Been here 2 1/2 years and now there's all sorts to look forward to
