there are a few white tipped snowdrop spikes in the far corner of the garden now. The first was a couple of days ago. They're quite a way off deploying full flowers though and all the rest are still green.

gosh! It seems so early.

my garden is very enclosed and has something of its own microclimate. It's usually slightly warmer than it should be on cold days but conversely has less light. So it depends upon what triggers each plant whether it will be early or late in flowering. How long it will then last in summer heat may also be different.
