Been to a friends garden today in Wrexham and their's are out too. By the way if anyone wants Colchicum, wait until the Garden Centres sell them off in a month or so time because they have flowered in the packet. Planted about three times as deep as the bulb is tall, they will throw up a lot of leaves in Spring. Feed them then with a foliage feed and they will reward you with flowers next Autumn and a lot cheaper too.
