Taken this morning in between showers and after a very very blustery night. The other 4990 are not quite as advanced as this group.

very precocious!-or, just an 'early' variety?

My word Eric, that is early - lovely :)  No sign of ours yet.  Your message puts a picture in my mind of you on your hands and knees counting the snowdrops as they appear ;D :D :D

Love snowdrops and snowflakes!  Now, my pelargonium is still in flower outside our front doot and has been since late spring 2004......does this mean it is early....or late?  ;)  Gorgeous eric, a taste of delights from your garden to come!!  Can't wait.

Thats nothing Eric! Mine started coming out on New Years Eve! (or at least thats when i first noticed them  ;D). The foliage has been showing on others since well before christmas.

The bizarre thing is i also still have the odd 'summer' flower still hanging on.
