February is our coldest month (mean max. 4-7C depending on altitude) and
snow is guaranteed on Dartmoor every February.

Bluebells come out on the moor in April/May. The moorland variety is small
and not as big as the woodland varieties.

I've just bought myself a calendar for 2010. The picture for February is
of bluebells on Dartmoor with trees in full leaf. Is this normal, (up
here in Whistlefield it's usually May) or is this proof of global
warming?

Will, we need an answer.

Max here today so far 1.4 C at 00:59 and the min was 0.1 C at 09:18.
Currently 1.1 C.

Even in milder-than-mild Hampshire, I don't think I've ever seen a
bluebell before April. On the other hand I have seen primroses in
February, if I recall correctly.
