Second batch for #sixonsaturday first pulmonaria, a self seeded white primrose and some sadly collapsed white crocuses. Too much rain!

1st-2nd February is Imbolc, a Gaelic festival celebrating the impending lambing season and the birth of new life. A Scottish legend tells that the arrival of snowdrops infuriates Beira, Queen of Winter, so she brings frost and snow as she battles to keep her hold. #FolkloreSunday
Close-up of three white entwined snowdrop flowers hanging from slender green stems, their nodding blooms softly lit against a blurred green and white background with pale speckles of light.

🌱🚀SURPRISING FIRST! Delphinium x belladonna 'Bellamosum' an atypical 1st out of the gate, but after dry freezing & bottom heat, germinated in 5 days - now day 10. This hexaploid nothospecies is a result of crosses between D. grandiflorum (pic 3) & D. elatum (pic 1). Ranunculaceae

Pictures from my tiny garden which has been totally soaked this week. I have been able to be out in it a couple of times and have seen bulbs growing. It won’t be long till they flower.
A collage of six pictures from my tiny garden. Stars of the show are the Hellebores. The dark double one is a recent acquisition. The other one is one from Ashwood Nurseries. The small pictures are the tiny white, sweetly scented flowers of Sarcococca, emerging Crocus flowers (I must buy more this year), a white Camellia bud and tiny white flowers of sweetly scented winter Honeysuckle.

It’s been a very wet week, but today’s #SixOnSaturday still highlights some plants that are great for winter scent. We have a hellebora flower, Winter Honeysuckle, Plum blossom, Virburnum, Sweet Box and Cornus mas.

Have a great weekend!

#SixOnSaturday saw snow finally melting🫠my seed order has a dark theme this year, birds were everywhere, greenhouse was packed and full of flowers, and my poppy pots should germinate now that the snow melted.
