    Ours are popping up everywhere too and it's lovely to see them in the garden again. :D

    I want a path like photo #3.. How many did you plant originally? I have some around the front yard but I haven't seen hide nor hair of them yet.

    These were here when we bought the house. All I have done over the years is spread them out so that they cover a bigger area. This form of G. nivalis clumps up very quickly.

    WOW - looking lovely! :) NOTHING is coming up here yet this year and usually by now we do have the occasional snow drop or crocus popping up but this past winter has been so cold and awful nothing in the garden is moving yet at all.

    Pure, unadulterated garden envy. My rescued snowdrops are far from blooming but have emerged. I hope to some day see my little half lot as spectacular as your beds.

    I've got garden envy too!
    I need to get some snowdrops, although I don't think they would be blooming this early.
