    Lovely! I have a tiny number of snowdrops, but that's it so far - watching for crocuses soon. I love the mini iris!

    Hi Glenda :-D
    I think tulips & daffodils are pretty hardy. They should survive a frost, mine do. They look pretty wilty till it warms up but they always bounce back!

    Love the iris Eileen. With so much white and yellow at this time of year, the blue is heavenly.

    Thanks for the touch of spring Eileen. I have snowdrops, carolina jasmine, pansies, violas, snapdragons, and I even have a daisy blooming, only one flower and I don't remember the name. It is white with a yellow center, but stays small, the bush and flower. It will get covered tomorrow night with the freeze.

    So pretty. I especially love the mini iris. My first ones are deep dark purple. They are such little gems. 8)
