My daffs are 4 inches high but not showing colour yet (Rijnveld's Early
Sensation, one of the earliest\). I spotted a Winter Aconite about to open
in the garden today and Celandine virtually open. Snowdrops are showing
white buds

Just cut arm fulls of Lonicera x purpusii for the scent, Camellia St ewe
should be out by Christmas day, both of which are normal. Daffs and snow
drops no where near up here, not even leaves but several Hellebores out.

Yes, I have Hellebores out but no signs of daffs or snowdrops. I would
really like to understand how a garden can be earlier than others for
some things and well later for others. (South Lincolnshire - nowhere
near Cornwall)
Lonicera x purpusii doing very well - and Clematis cirrhosa 'Freckles'
