Snowdrops



I've had mixed results growing snowdrops over the years but this little patch is currently making a nice appearance. I think I remember reading that there are thousands of varieties but honestly, they all look the same to me. This is the earliest blooming flower in the garden. Spring is coming!

I felt they all looked the same too, Phillip, until I started following a number of UK garden blogs. After several years, I've come to appreciate their differences even though there's absolutely no chance of growing them in my climate ;)

I felt the same way about them, and the--like Kris above-- I started following UK garden blogs and there are definitely differences. I love the green markings on this one, like little green hearts.

Doesn't matter how small those first little flowers are always the most special.
