Christine Walkden used to say "They know exactly what to do" and it seems true most of the time too
What a lovely surprise Jasmine ;D

Most of the rest of my daffs are just breaking the surface like yours Carolann. I love the sight of the first daffodil but I don't want them to be over too early as well.

A perfect hideaway for slimey molluscs  I don't usually see any daffs until nearly the end of January. |

I can't believe it - I have never had things so early - bet I lose them if we really sink down in temps or perhaps a warming snow blanket may save them...

I noticed my little irises are out but you have to kneel down to see them as they're so dark and they blend in with the soil |

My Chimonanthes is in full flower at least 4 weeks earlier than last year - the scent is wonderful  I have 2 crocuses and an Iris reticulata in flower,too |

I'm not sure if this is a spring flower, or a very late autumn one... My Cistus 'Silverpink' is flowering happily!  I found Leucojum aestivum in flower this afternoon.  My Hellebores aren't quite as open as RF's lovelies - but almost.  |

Love the little green tips on the Leucojum Geranium.
