  • Signs of Spring?

    The first pink cherry blossom spotted today (I think it's cherry: I'm not great at trees)

    The first bit of pink colour from the tip of a rhubarb crown which I thought was dead............

    to present to him vegetables and all beautiful flowers.- Offerings of Thutmose III to Amon-Ra (1500 BCE)

      First snowdrops starting to show buds.
      Whooops - now what are the dogs getting up to?

            The swans - the boys are chasing the girls and the girls are fighting back. Don't they know it's still December?

              Bluebells have been showing for a while, I think your cherry blossom may be wintersweet TS.

                Have seen a Cherry tree pretty much in full blossom, and a few trees along the M5 with blossom starting to show!

                  There are carnations in flower in a front garden down the road, must be hanging on from last season.

                  I can see that weeds are still growing in mine. must catch them before they flower!

                        To be honest I would much sooner see a carpet of snow with good frosts as it should be at this time of year.

                          we don't always get snow here ...sometimes it just passes us by. I think we're in a bit of a hollow or something

                              My apple trees are in blossom, I have a Patty's Plum poppy in flower, roses still blooming and gorse is in flower along roadway areas. Bonkers!
