.. . 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.

LOL Nothing whatever to count, I can't see anything coming through at
all. The strange thing is that my dahlias survive the Winter. For
years I used to dig them up and then got too many so I left them in,
they survive, bizarre. Maybe it's something to do with being planted
deeper than recommended?
