@Littleashgarden He was delighted, so sad I can't go outside to see all our snowdrops, finding it hard seeing everyone else's pictures!

After 4 weeks in hospital I am home sharing my breakfast with Donald who is 9 today and taking care of me

This is what happens when you try to tidy up must have been about 1985!

This is a shrub I would never be without, low-growing, evergreen and covered with scented flowers in January, Sarcococca confusa

The weather has driven Donald into the airing cupboard, I feel like joining him

[Stillingfleet Lodge @SLGardens]

Amongst the brown soggy foliage the early snowdrops are a delight, this is Peter Gatehouse, has been in flower for a month now and not one of the wildly expensive forms

Snow scenes are often magical, not so ‘Hannah Hauxwell Last Winter’, one of Peter Brook’s bleakest of some 50 portrayals of the Baldersdale farmer living and working alone at Low Birk Hatt, a truly cold painting with no sign of the usual touch of colour or brightness in the sky.

@BrenHaas Thank you, it is a wall of red at the moment

[Stillingfleet Lodge @SLGardens]

Beastly weekend, floods and storm damage but on the garage wall Trachelospermum jasminoides is turning red and cheering me up enormously, the fact that it also has very fragrant flowers in the summer makes it desirable
