Mine still in bud, but won't be long now. Will end up coming out at about
the right time of year.

Some are over around 'ere.

Though some daffs are still in flower, and have been since late-January.
I suspect the warm, settled weather forecast for next week will finish
them all off and they'll go to seed quickly.

I did notice a few daffs still in bud or just opening, that was higher
up and where they're in the shade.

Bluebells and ransoms are greening up nicely, they'll flower early this
year methinks, maybe early April (normally they're at their best from
mid-April onwards).

It will probably be a daffodil-less Easter. Not often that happens (

We had a fairly late Easter a few years ago (during the run of mild
winters when people thought it would never snow again in lowland
Britain) when the daffs were out so early I was thinking we would be
having tulips for Mothering Sunday (3 weeks before Easter) because the
daffs would be finished by then.
