Default Spring - That's more like it!

One thing I've noticed in Cornwall is that the snowdrops, crocuses &

daffs all come out at about the same time. In fact last year, when the daffs
were exceptionally early (many fields in bloom early January), they were
before the crocuses.

You're right! It's the same here. Back up in Worcester it nearly always goes
with snowdrops first, then crocuses then daffodils. But down 'ere in south
Devon they have all flowered at the same time. I put it all down to the very
dry, occasionally cold and reasonably sunny weather we have had rather than
the more usual warm/wet/windy conditions.
