    It's good to see plants coming to life after the winter and it'll be interesting to identify the bulbs under the Dogwood. It's too early for Bluebells but they could be Tulips.

    Winter Pansies - am i too late?

    They are really at their best before June, then you can replace them with summer bedding. It also depends a bit on the weather. When it's hot they don't last so long.
