I passed this garden walking into work this morning. This garden always has some of the earliest bulbs I know. In the distance the camellia tree is under-planted with snowdrops and aconites, later bluebells will flower before the tree canopy fully opens. Nearer the wall these daffodils are poking through the dusting of snow, which was the first wintry weather I'd seen in this area all winter. We're at the middle of February already and this week the sense that nights are lengthening, still reasonably light at 6pm, gladdens the heart. Spring is there as these brave daffodils show poking through the snow. I love the thought they've always been there through every season just waiting for now to show their true colours.
