Wow, that's a stunner Rosefriend! I saw your aconites on FB Tig and wondered if they might have something to do with Jilly. I got some from her but I think the corms are loved by small furry things so go the way of crocus, ranunculus and tulips. |

Absolutely incredible here in Germany in January...first bad frost of course and I will lose a lot.. |

Very pretty Tig, I don't think you've got enough hellebores! |

 and at least another 24 to open buds - but you are right, I don't think I do have enough Jasmine ....

I spotted flowers on the chimonanthus praecox in the front this morning, unfortunately I had to balance on one leg and stretch across the plants to get a blurry photo  |

I love that camellia Rosefriend, and the lovely iris Tig, and mickthecactus, mine are nowhere like opening yet, and your hycinth and amaryllis Ladygardener, and all those lovely hellerbors Tig,  I think you could find room for some more! and no doubt you will. |

Some of my Iris are open as well, I have lovely yellow crocus open in the front garden, but the slugs have nibbled the tops off the new growth on the day lilies and tulips, why did Noah let them on that bloody ark.

He didn't Barbara, they just hitchhiked in on some lettuce or something like that and waited out the flood before going off in search of some yummy iris! Your iris are very pretty Tig! |

Lovely crocus and hellebore Tig, we have crocus as school but they are struggling in the the amount of rain we are having. |

That's a great Hellibore, Tig, well done. Lovely little Crocus. |

I don't think iris here like being in the ground, either that or something likes to eat the bulbs/corms. That hellebore is stunning Tig! |

I love to see the little Iris, such a wonderful blue those are Tig. Your Hellebore are stunning. I've got some flowers on some of mine this year too. |

and at least another 24 to open buds - but you are right, I don't think I do have enough
