We usually try - don't always succeed - to go round the garden on NYD to
see
what is flowering on that day. I thought it might be interesting if
everyone on urg did that and compared notes, if they are feeling able to
do
so, of course. ;-))
For example, we have primroses out at present, as well as all the usual
suspects like Lonicera purpusii and Sarcococcas, Viburnum tinus etc. and
on
Christmas Eve we saw two tiny flowered daffs in someone's garden in
Ivybridge, about 30 mins down the A38 from here.

I doubt anything is flowering under this lot:

I think you may well be right! Pretty though.

Not when you are shovelling it off the drive! I leave the crabapples on the
tree for the birds and any deer that venture into the neighbourhood.
