In my garden at the moment I've got Narcissus rijnvelds early sensation:  (took that one in December though!) Crocus sieberi bowles white:  A yellow Crocus which I think is romance (if not it's golden bunch - anyone know?):  Galanthus nivalis:  Pansy morpho:  Leucojum aestivum (which is supposed to flower in April!):  and Vinca minor gertrude jekyll (which I think is supposed to flower from May :  :  I've also got a reticulata Iris (which is disproportionately exciting for me because I've never grown Iris before ;D), and a Crocus vanguard, and my Chaenomeles speciosa nivalis is just coming into flower, but I haven't sorted photos of them yet. |

Thanks folks  Sorry about your Crocus, RF - the birds don't seem to bother with mine. I've got something nesting in a pot with some of them though - haven't seen it but think it must be a mouse, from the size of tunnel! Not sure whether it is eating some of the bulbs or just looking for somewhere for a nice warm snooze. Sorry about the big space at the bottom of my last post btw - I edited it out but it seems to have come back  |

As I have said the pics are really lovely - the space that the bottom of the thread comes from the code that is used Proboards to keep photos smaller.
I now have another few crocuses starting...perhaps I will have luck now.

I found a lovely little patch of yellow baby crocus which had been hidden in past years and I'd forgotten ever planting, what a great little find for me today when I came home from work. ;D
