    @BeeHappy I planted them in a large pot with other bulbs last autumn and they've been outside ever since. I'm in the South West, and close to the city centre, so warmer and more sheltered than some, but the pot and new foliage was still under a good few inches of snow a week ago! No ill effects so far, though I think everything is flowering a little later than it usually does.

                          Yep WO, dandelion does look pretty, I guess but.....
                          It gatecrashes the party, brings in all its progeny to further take over and, well, it was never invited in the first place! :sad:
                          Sorry Dan, you are not welcome here and if you do intrude I will exterminate you no matter how appealing you may look :snorky:
