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
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!

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.
