A.k.a. winter flowering cherry... so there is nothing exciting about the fact it's flowering now :( And I thought I could impress folks :lol:

Those pics are awesome - I just have a few crocuses out but snowdrops seem to have forgotten to come up this year. Daffs are about three inches tall and the one calla hercules I left outside with its feet in the pond is still happy. Hardly had it lower than minus4 here at all and then only for a very short period at night. I can see plenty of snow from our house but then we are on the coast and the mountains are only a couple of miles inland - really snowy on the way home from Inverness today but beautiful sunshine here when we got home. Beautiful pictures.......

No, its not a weed - its a primrose by the look of it. Put it in a woodland/fern/tree fern setting, will be flowering very soon. Has a beautiful delicate scent and makes me think spring is not far away!

If it is one primula vulgaris you could have hundreds in a few years by leaving them alone. Thanks for sharing the cheering-up pics icon_thumleft

I also believe its a Primula, I have four, all white/light lemon,

Its four weeks since I was at my GP surgery and even then Snowdrops were out. Mine in a small tub usually puts out one tiny one.

Very nice Images Dave and otorongo.
