I have been monitoring the same bunch of snowdrops in my garden since 2012 noting the date an which they produce their first blooms. This year the first hint of white appeared on the 31st Dec 2015 and a single bloom on the 2nd Jan 2016. On the 3rd the rest of the bunch had caught up. Refer to picture Image for a view of the 2015 bloom and the links to the preceding years.
