This includes daffodils, which I would have thought would have come up much later. I come from a part of the world where even crocuses wait until late February to make an appearance. Are my bulbs coming up too early? Should I have buried them deeper? Are they doomed?
Any advice greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

I think they'll be okay. I think this is a 'wait and see' scenario.
It's more temperate here in Wales, but I've loads of bulbs sticking their noses up despite the recent cold snap, a lot of which were planted in about October,plus the birds have been scritching about in the soil (damn blackbirds!!!) exposing them more in one place in the garden. I'll probably look for a bit of compost and scatter a bit over them if I remember but if not,I'm confident they'll be okay.
Hope all goes well for yours!
