Lucky you Nick. There are daffs flowering merrily on the roundabout just up the road from me. The ones in my garden are about 6 inches high and in full bud but I think they will be a couple weeks till they open.

My snowdrops were in full flower for the first time today. Crocuses (Croci?) too.

Fabulous!

Hi Nick, how's it going? My garden snowdrops are in flower now. Buds showed about a week ago. Crocuses well behind this year, and daffs just starting (mind you my garden doesn't get much sun this time of year). Primroses have been flowering since Autumn in some of the borders, but are only just starting in others.
