My daffs are poking through the soil but I don't have a single snowdrop in the garden - keep saying I will buy bulbs and plant them but never seem to remember at the right time
I don't have any snow drop in my garden but my narcissus are coming ( around 5 cm)...is that means spring is coming sooner next year ?
Would really love that....
Hello Uglygourd. I don't know what that means. I must have a look round and see what I have. I know that crocus don't grow for me anymore - it's too warm. Half a degree in average temperature is all it takes. Maybe it's getting too warm for snowdrops here.
From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs.
Snowdrops are better planted 'in the green' than from bulbs. These can often be very dried up and not all will grow. You see snowdrops advertised in Feb/March time and they are lifted when the flowers have finished. Plant them so the white stem above the bulb doesn't show and they usually take very well.
Good idea Shirl get them when the flowers are just dying and set them in 2s or 3s I was once told they dont like to be alone!! I dont know if this was a wind up or true but i always put 2 in a hole and it works I have a big clump of double headed ones that started as a clump of about 8 that I spotted on my future father in laws earth dirt in his builders yard!! 30 years on Ive got about 100 odd and a husband from him!!
