MMario, I so envy that snowdrop !!!!
After all the rambles here about blooming flowers and dirty hands I donned a winter coat and with only a few shivers headed out to check the garden. The warmth of a few weeks pat sent the daffodils and a few sheltered tulips inches above the ground which is now freezing around them... BG
Amazingly enough when a poked through the leaves mulching the herbs along the driveway I discovered that the Rosemary and Parsley both have survived the winter so far.... They never have before. Perhaps it's because I planted them in order this year.... Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme....
The north side of the house is still has snow covered beds so that observation will have to wait a bit.

Living vicariously through you all...
