This time of year is always a problem for me particularly when its
been so mild. All the flowers are growing and my garden is in bloom
with crocus, snowdrops, and daffs. The cherry blossom is on show in
pick and white like April has started last night.

Crocuses, snowdrops and daff are perfectly able to stand up to severe
frost, though daffs are decidedly unhappy under several inches of wet
snow, however

It's the May frosts that may be slight by winter's standards that do the
*real* damage in the garden.
