Bet you're not, bramble! Although you beat us here in the Midlands.
When I was at my sister's in Fareham at the weekend she took me to a big garden centre called Garston's in Titchfield where they have all sorts of goodies - I bought some 'locally grown' daffs which have brightened my lounge and remind me of a lovely weekend.
Also the 'flower miles' were very low - unlike the carnations flown in from S Africa on sale at the local supermarket!

Don't think your first Bramble but you are early. Ugly Gourd your daffs are Tete a Tete (head to head) and they are lovely. My boxes of them are just about there, but not quite. Enjoy your daffs, they sure give that spring is here feeling. (very springlike here today with lovely sunshine).

We've got a load of bulbs come up at the front of ours, a mixture of Daffs, Tulips and snowdrops. No flowers yet, but they're aching to!
It's our first "crop" so we're very excited the wife and I, like expectant parents!! Unfortunately they get very little sun at this time of year, which is why we planted them there to brighten up the darkness.A simple dude trying to grow veg. http://haywayne.blogspot.com/

Practise makes us a little better, it doesn't make us perfect.
What would Vedder do?

Saw a loads of flowering Dafs the other day down one of the lanes hereabouts, but the ones in the plot arent quite ready to flower yet, unfortunately!
Havinbg said that we have got some lovely little pale blue flowers in the border of our second plot, they are definitely not bluebells, Mr D seems to think they are crocuses!Blessings

At present the flowers are vertical and not fully opened RL, about 4" tall, with the flowers being about 1 1/2", look to have similar flower structure to a tulip, tho as they arent fully open I'm not sure if they are crocuses or not!Blessings

I used to have lots of crocus in all colours and very lovely they were. Now I have hardly any. I think maybe the pesky squirrels dug some up but the ones I do have just come up and fall over . I think it is just too warm for them.
