After two and a half weeks under the snow, look who’s shown up ready to continue blooming as if nothing happened! Snowdrops have their name for a reason. (Believe me, the snow is still 8 to 10 inches deep almost everywhere else but these are along a south-facing light colored wall.)

Plant of the Day

The wonderful pink catkins of Salix gracilistyla 'Mount Aso' (willow) appear from late winter and into the early spring. These images were sent by a friend (‘thank you’ Richard) who saw them flowering at the Royal Horticulture Society Garden Hyde Hall, Essex. This deciduous shrub reaches about 3m and has slightly bluish leaves which are silvery on the underside.
