Then I will move mine Jasmine. They have bulked up but I'm not seeing them at their best where they are.  |

Rosefriend, that top one is very very unusual and they're all lovely. I've moved my Jasmine Snowdrops and was so surprised at how many there were. They'll do better for me where I can see them properly in the middle bed. No pictures this year because they've drooped right down when I moved them but I know they'll be fine.

They look smashing Ladygardener, just noticed mine from the upstairs front window. I was thinking how lovely it is still to have snowdrops as we head to the end of March! |

Yes is'nt it Jasmine, they're the only ones left at this stage. Even my Crocus are going over although I do have some late ones thankfully as the bees have been around and they're loving them. |

All mine in pots have gone over this week  they have been particularly lovely this year, grown quite tall compared to other years, anyone else had this. I'm going to look for some spaces in the garden to pop a few in as 18 pots of them is ridiculous, think I'll keep the doubles in pots  |

The nice thing about snowdrops up higher is that you can look inside and enjoy the detail...but 18 pots is a lot Chuckles! I seem to have quite a few clumps of ordinary (but very lovely) snowdrops still but I can't say they seem to be any bigger/taller than other years. I think yours are defying the don't grow them in pots advice Chuckles! |

This is what I mean on size JasmineThe photo I posted 5 th Feb and how they look now, they have drooped now so imagine how tall they were a week ago.  |
