A late-comer to my Winter garden!

Another Hellebore called Double Queen - going cheap at the GC when I was supposed to only be getting compost! A snakehead Fritillaria also made it into my basket too!

~went into the garden just now and found another one of my batch of unnamed seedlings bought a few years ago has finally flowered~green and pink double/multi petals with maroon spots inside!~hasn't opened fully yet though!
When I was chatting with the owner of Farmyard Nursery and told him that I had a white double,pink with maroon spots and light purple with maroon spots from the first three to flower he was amazed at how lucky I had been with this particular batch.!

Yours sound lovely too - great colours for this time of year aren't they?
We've had some lovely spring sunshine today so been out there enjoying them but the wind has got up and I hear we are in for a cold snap? Hope not frosty and kill off all the new growth! I think we may get some gales off the sea though.
love Jo
