bulbs poping up

I can confirm seeing the first daffs of the year. On the way driving over to Crawley this afternoon, we passed a grassy bank at the side of the road and there were several daffs already flowering, early as they always are there (no idea why). But this is extra early-and a very welcome sight

 

I spotted some crocus flower buds today so won't be long now until they flower

 

tips of bulbs showing though not much else.
I'm still waiting for the snow drops.
In the meanwhile I have some alliums to plant (Wazzakins got them from Amsterdam for me) and I bought some Lily of the Valley to plant. I want them to spread. Always wanted some of those.

 

As its sunny here I took a wander out into the garden and found crocus and snowdrops buds showing their little heads. Can't wait for them, I only planted them last autumn so excited
