    Just been out in the garden to bring back one of my cats and noticed in the grass of the lawn some self seeded Snowdrops, it's amazing how the tiny flowers pick up the torch light.:hapydancsmil:

      Most of my dwarf Iris are in bud, but this won the race! Seems early to me too as they usually break through in February for me. The new garden may just be more sheltered though:dunno:

        I planted iris for the first time last year and some of them have bloomed today. They look a bit lonely but it's lovely to see them!

          Cheating maybe, but the Bird of Paradise in the living room is in bloom!

              Not a lot out there at the moment but got these just starting;

              New Zealand hybrid hellebore

              Another 2 hellebores side by side, from seed a few years ago

              The purple/pink one which is a nicer flower I think

              A single yellow primrose
