There are a few little primrose/primula buds here, but I think if the snowdrops peeked up they'd duck back down pretty quickly once they felt the icy cold. Nice to know though that spring is on its way. Our sunrise is around 7:50 a.m. now and our sunset about 5:10 p.m. How does that compare with yours?Glohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09532995590131801962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7274925030972014073.post-47201286979887988552009-01-28T04:16:00.000+00:002009-01-28T04:16:00.000+00:00Oh...to take a nap in the sunny conservatory with ...Oh...to take a nap in the sunny conservatory with your kitties!

I bought a Hamamelis intermedia (for 5,-, too, what a coincidence) in Autumn and it was suppposed to be the yellow Westerstede, which would bloom later in the year. But mine is flowering like yours and right now. No scent, sadly. Two snowdrops in containers are already flowering and a lot of crokus are poking their noses out of the dirt.
