Just a few days ago there was no sign of the snowdrops under the big birch tree. Then a day of sun and by afternoon there they were. Just in time for the beginning of spring at Imbolc or Candlemas on February 2, halfway between the solstice and the equinox. Any day now the seed orders will start arriving. And then we're off again into a new season.

Snowdrops
Just a few days ago there was no sign of the snowdrops under the big birch tree. Then a day of sun and by afternoon there they were. Just in time for the beginning of spring at Imbolc or Candlemas on February 2, halfway between the solstice and the equinox. Any day now the seed orders will start arriving.

Our snowdrops are now all hidden under snow Margaret. But the sun is shining and it is beginning to thaw.
