They are normally out around Christmas. Haven't checked the ones in pots out the back...

Out looking around garden and they are popping up just the tips of the leaves of my Tete a tete mini daffs and the hyacinths too, well spotted @gmarkj
I wouldn't have expected that.

They are easy to spot as they are just outside our front door!

Should be a lot of them coming up soon as we planted lots of bulbs last year in the front and the back gardens.

I'm moving from the Midlands down to Devon in January so won't be planting anything else in my current garden now.

 

I would highly recommend anyone lookign for a good colourful plant that keeps coming back year after year, to go for an Alstroemeria (Peruvian Lily or Lily of the Incas).  It's a beautiful plant.

Hi @Marjo 

Well Spring sprung early ~ still February ~ here are some of the tulips that I planted just before Christmas ~ not all up yet ~ some still just coming up in the pots.

 

There are some crocus up and more are coming up in pots from my planting before Christmas ~ 

and those wonderful Tete a Tete mini daffodils (planted years ago)
