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


Every year at this time a big bed of large Kniphofia on the roadside about
100 yards from the S. side of Staines Bridge towards Chertsey is in full
flower, and in the sunshine of Boxing day they looked magnificent.
Unfortunately, since then, some kind spirited person has been along and cut
every head off, all 100 or so of them. Sad world sometimes.
Anyone know which traditional looking Kniphofia flowers now?
