How does your garden grow February week 1

This week we had a walk around Waddesdon manor to see if we could see any signs of spring and we were not disappointed as we were treated to swaths of snowdrops and other little flowers poking their heads out, the air was fresh and the sky blue and it felt as if spring was finally on it way. 

 There is something so delicate and vulnerable about the delicate stems of crocuses and irises and i love how they provide pin points of colour.

    Ah such warmly welcomes signs of Spring - I'm getting very excited about the prospect of Spring as I remember how happy it made me seeing all the bursts of colour every Thursday!
    I have spied some crocus this week (croci? crocus? crocuses?!) pin points of colour is a great way to describe them.

    thanks for sharing and colour this week and joining in again x

    oh I love Waddesdon, I visited in late summer a couple of years ago and would love to go back. It's so wonderful to see snowdrops isn't it! x

    Good grief - so much spring colour. I love aconites and always remember picking them from our hedgerow as a child (we had loads) and ALWAYS getting stung by the emerging stinging nettles! Never stoped me going back the next year for more though.
