Our first Muscari of the spring….and quite a surprise as it is being much earlier than the Snowdrops that are usually our first showing of spring season bulbs. But best not complain for despite all the heavy rains and storms of January we still haven’t had our winter. As for the rains, well after a summer and autumn (that lasted till nearly Christmas) of record high temperatures, record hours of sunshine and the driest for generations, the rains had to come. Winter may well yet have the ultimate sting in its tail, but it is great to see the first signs of spring starting to emerge.
