The first surprise 2010
Only one flower in my garden Crocus biflorus ssp. pulchricolor in a frame protected with Plexiglas.  The first Crocus every year C. abantensis and C. baytopiorum are still waiting.
The rest of the Garden is snow snow snow.

Welcome to the SRGC forum, Klaus-Dieter.
Seems like Southern Germany has the better climate for crocus - I'm still waiting for mine.

Janis,
according to your last predication I have to assume Thomas "Eyecatcher" are virused too?

My eyes don't show symptoms on EYECATCHER of Thomas.
Janis

Janis, thanks for confirmation.

Jings, that all looks so neat and tidy..... I'm impressed.... ours don't look like that! 

[mark smyth]

Thanks. I'll show the other two plunges tomorrow - no brownie points for them

[Tony Willis]

Very nice Mark a lovely display

[tonyg]

Lovely Mark - mine are much less advanced.

[mark smyth]

Thanks Tony and Tony. A few are not flowering this year

[mark smyth]

Tony G the advantage for mine at this time of year is the sun has moved to the back of the house for a couple of hours in the morning and hits them again around 2pm until the sun goes down

Thanks Thomas,

I don´t think so. It´s a early surprise in this “snow spring”, therefore I have posted it.

What a great display Mark    
So you have sunlight morning & evening but shade in the middle of the day?  Presumably this keeps temperatures lower so prolongs flowering

Crocus chrysanthus Zenith
Crocus abantensis.  In spit of my best efforts I could not get a good pic of this one today.
