Same as you Kazz, but none actually in flower. In our local paper there was an article about daffodils in full bloom in a local village. Can't wait 'til they are in full bloom, but sadly they don't last long enough.

No I adore Daffs and tulips. I have seen a fair few crocuses in the verges around the roads.

Oh I am so green with envy, you lucky peeps! Nothing is up here, crocuses, daffodils and certainly not tulips!! But I do have a bud on one hellebore.....

I have seen daffs in bloom along a roadside. South facing and sheltered. There are none out yet in my garden though. Snowdrops are nearly over!

Taken in the frost this morning.....

Got the hellebores in flower and the mini daffs in the tubs are 50% out. In the borders the main daffs have fat, swollen buds so it won't be long now. Apart from that the crocuses are in flower and the buds on the forsythia are starting to colour up.

Loved the pics, Mags! So nice to see something alive and in flower......it will be quite a while here; although the buds on the Winter jasmine are beginning to swell a wee bit...

We took our 2 hounds to give their 3-monthly blood donation today at a vet near Melton Mowbray, the daffodils were in full bloom! Lovely to see, Such an amazing day weather-wise. We went to a Toby Carvery for lunch and there were loads of people sitting outside, some in t-shirts! freaky weather!

Yes, about 1/2 dozen long-stemmed daffodils in flower in my south-facing front garden. It's a joy to behold :D

I, by pure chance managed to plant lots of different varieties that usually flower from very early Feb. through to early May so I have daffodils for several months.

I adore them, my completely favourite flower . . . the sign of a new year and a new annual circle of life starting up :D
