Maybe the nivalis know something about the weather that we don't...
It is the same situation in my garden, nivalis barely visible, many others far ahead. And now - after an extremely warm December - there is snow and hard frost. Clever G. nivalis...

In the moment we have a yellow and a green G plicatus. Our yellow SCHORBUSER IRRLICHT is very early and the yellow color is in progress. The other is THREE SHIPS and it seems it is a little bit envy, because it is "only" green.....different characters......

Hagen is not easy to follow for a Jr. member, particularly after that stunning yellow. Congratulations, Hagen.

This G. elwesii has been blooming since Christmas and I snapped this shot yesterday...just a nice early one with deep green inners.

Happy New Year Maggi and all here on the Forum! Rick

Hagen - great picture and good way to introduce the New Year :) This is a rather lovely and delicate snowdrop from Avon Bulbs so here it is again to begin a chime of bells...

Putting this in here as it was there on December 30th 2014, but today was the first time the sun has shone enough to take a photo. Never seen our G. nivalis flower this early before. Odd, the ones in the Snowdrop Wood are still only just showing their noses.
