100 each of single and double snowdrops arrived today. I've set the doubles under the willow tree and the singles next to the log.

Quite a relaxing job isn't it Dawn, I did exactly the same last year 100 of each too, keep trying to buy a few more each year, this year it'll be splitting and dividing bigger clumps :-)

You've been busy, Dawn. Still a covering of snow/ice here but should have disappeared by tomorrow hopefully.

You have been busy, all i've done to day is make cups of coffee and tea for a couple of guys putting new fence panels up for me.

Thanks Bornagain/Eileen. Gee, poor you, still snow around :-(
Oh Carol, when you have people working at the house you cant get anything done, expect make tea, lol.
Kathy: 200 sounds alot but they dont go far do they when set in bunches of about 20. At least when they're in the green, they are easy to set. I'm going to buy some each year and I cant wait until I'm dividing my own, like you :-)

Hi Kathy, well when I spoke to the lady on the phone she said they come in bunches of 25, which they did and she said split the bunch in half and set them in a clump like that. I dont know why I said in 20's above, lol
