Snowdrop census - week 2


Back Garden - 137
Front Garden - 50
Side Garden - 142
Guerilla Garden - 116
GRAND TOTAL - 445
As promised, I've posted a picture of the double snowdrops in the back garden. Even in last Sunday's rain they looked beautiful. The Pulmonarias are beginning to bloom and I now have several crocuses in flower. Why is it the yellow ones always show first?

  2. Thanks Nessa - I hope they are, that way there'll be more of them next year!

    Hi Wildside - I've looked back in my garden diaries and they've been pretty consistent in when they appear in my garden. However, I believe the main month for snowdrops is February - that's when a lot of gardens do their special snowdrop walks and openings.

  3. I love your snowdrops. I have planted some of them around my property, but not nearly as many as you have. Here in New Jersey, I'm still a few weeks away from seeing my snow drops. Here's a picture of some of them:

Hi, let's start a conversation - right here, right now! If you have a question, I'll also endeavour to get back to you over at your place.

If anyone is having problems leaving comments, do contact me on vegplotting at gmail dot com or @malvernmeet if a quick tweet is more convenient for you.

Thanks xxx

My general policy re comments

I value genuine commenters for the conversation they bring. Those aiming to link back and give credence to commercial websites (thankfully rare) will be removed.

Blog posts are kept open for your Comments for as long as possible - for at least 3 months. I've reluctantly taken the decision if a post comes in for a sp@m attack after that time, I'll remove its Comments facility. I've found genuine comments are rarely left after 3 months, but dozens of sp@m comments are :( Removing these takes away the joy that a genuine comment might be left one day.
