Lovely sight isn't it. We don't really seem to have had much of a winter this year though apart from the cold spell a couple of weeks ago. There is so much in bud and those blackbirds are very heartilysinging. We had one daffy out for weeks now, it must be in its own micro-climate. I've been planting a few bulbs up the side of the lane and they've started to multiply |

I too love to see the daffs coming into flower. Ours are a little slow but they are in bud. Ours are particularly poignant for me cos my mum and dad planted them here in 1998 when they visited (no one visits here without being given a job to do  ) and my dad passed away in Oct 2000 and my mum in April 2007. It is so lovely to see them flower and think of them both when they were planting them. |

Well, our daffs and tulips were coming on nicely in January, but then we had that cold snap (-15 here), and all the leaves got frostbitten, even the roses that were in bud in January, are now struggling.  |
