February and signs of spring in my garden.

Much more than in my garden too,HB ! It's looking much more like spring,unlike mine ! I have spotted three small Hellebore buds,and a few snowdrops,so I live in hope !! .

I don't participate as much as I used to either,but I look in every day,to see what everyone is up to,even if I don't always leave a comment.... :o)

Lovely to hear from you both…I do miss getting involved like we used to but life gets in the way sometimes. It’s not long now before proper springtime. :o)

I always love seeing your garden Sheila!

Its always a pleasure to see into your garden H'bird, like you I dislike the dreary dark days but the signs of spring are coming which give us a much needed boost....Lovely photographs x

I bet you were smiling when you went back up into the house again. The first flowers can get you quite excited can't they? I was convinced my hellebores were not going to flower this year, but they are all coming now.
Your garden always looks so incredibly clean and tidy. I wonder how you do it.

Hb, you said "There's not a lot" but I bet you're more than happy to have seen some colour after the dark Winter days. I love those clumps of Snowdrops, especially the ones coming through the slate/shale, so pretty. The pink Primula/Primrose is a big one! Only one of mine has come through the Winter, a bright yellow one which I'm pleased to see. Pop in on GoY as and when ... it's always good to see your garden.

Your garden looks quite colourful to me Homebird.I’ve only got a couple of clumps of Snowdrops. Thanks for the tour.

Lovely pics. Sheila. Your garden is looking pristine and very tidy. I do like your established evergreens, they definitely add much colour and structure through the colder months. You've some pretty spring colour and big juicy buds ready to pop open too!
Thanks for sharing with us.

Thankyou so much for your lovely comments. Although it’s still bitterly cold we’ve had some really sunny days. It’s been nice to get out, wrapped up well and clear a few bags full of leaves from under the hedges where the winds have blown them. The fresh air and exercise really boosts your mood doesn’t it.

It's a wonderful feeling isn't it when you see all the new growth!
I get excited too and you have much more showing in your garden than mine!
It was nice to see you on here again Homebird, even if I was late finding it!

Thanks Rose. It’s great to see the snowdrops looking whiter each day as they grow and open more and the crocus popping up in unexpected places!
