My bulbs seem to be keeping their heads down apart form the early snowdrops but there are fresh stems of soft green growth - several feet - on some of the clems, the hamamellis has already finished flowering, the hellebores are pushing out fresh new foliage, the rhubarb has new shoots showing so will need a blanket of compost and I had to cut the grass on the 19th of December and it's grown again.
Roses and penstemon still flowering and the cornus Midwinter Fire is in flower too.
Balmy weather makes for barmy growth.
Vendée - 20kms from Atlantic coast.

I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
