It takes a long time until a lawn looks so natural. I did not plan this meadow. On the edge is my bulb bed. From that bulb Beet seed is moved to the meadow. (Ants, etc.) I have just planted some bulbs (Crocus). That happens 30 years ago.

Ranunculus ficaria from the garden today. It's possibly 'Brazen Hussy' but I can't be certain.

Nice picture Martin, a lovely first post! Welcome to the forum.

Cold and miserable here but new shoots are coming up, so perhaps spring is really on its way.

It came all at once. Shoots and sprouts pushed dazedly out of the ground, crumpled like the ears of new-born Moominchildren."

Welcome Martin! Your portrait of the hellebore somehow put  me in mind of an auricula theatre :-\ - I think it was the dramatic setting.   :)
