Some daffodils are just poking through but not even a flower bud yet.
Found this hellebore and a highly scented shrub with a few flowers on. Not sure what it is but seems to  flower all winter. It is planted under an apple tree and the top has managed to grow through the canopy - and taken most of the flowers with it.

Could the shrub be Viburnum × bodnantense, Mark?

Plenty flowering and some that probably shouldn't be - this thread, in years to come, may illustrate the impact of climate change on our flora quite well! The temperature was in the mid-twenties this afternoon, ten above normal.

My wife thought it was a vibernum of some sort and that looks the most likely thanks.

Mostly the same as last month here too with the addition of snowdrops and a solitary Hypericum. May not have noticed the Alyssum last month.
Apologies for the photos - it was raining (again).

Quick walk round the garden today and I saw:-

Virburnam Bodnantensis
Primrose
Heather
Pinks, struggling
Viola cornuta
Pansy
Marigold
Daisy thing , silver foliage and the white daisy has a brown center.
Christmas rose
Winter Jasmine
Witch Hazel
Mahonia
Tobacco Plant, in the tunnel.
Lawn Daisy

It's still winter

But I had a walk round and found this little clump of snowdrops, about to bloom in the uncultivated part of the garden:

And next door's Camellia is leaning over my fence, so that counts:

The crocuses that were in a hanging basket last year have made it to their new home:

And a bowl of bulbs I planted up some years ago and neglected since, has thrown up a dwarf Iris:

Hopefully there will be more to see on March 1st!

My photos will have to wait until tomorrow as its a bit gloomy out and the crocus are sulking!
Snowdrops
Crocus Tommasianus
Viburnum tinus
Calendula
Kaffir Lily
Another Camellia as well as the one that was flowering in December.

No Daffs yet. WRONG There are Daffs in flower.
