Is Spring springing?

Last weekend we went to Kew, where there were masses of snowdrops.
I shall go again soon to see the crocus carpet. 🙂

Small cluster of bright yellow crocuses lurking under a ground-cover rose.... Phone playing up so can't add photo.

We have fields of daffodils here in South Lincolnshire. Local farmer sells them in our village. Never know what type I am buying till they open. Beautiful surprise every time.

Daffs in the public gardens in Buxton on Monday. Think the temperature was about two degrees!

Sure hope so but wouldn't have thought so from the zero situation in my area.

My pelargoniums are amazing! I decide not to make cuttings last autumn and thought that they would all die off; but no, they are still the same as in September last. I live on the top 5th/6th floors (it's a duplex) of a block of apartments and although the frost has been thick on the ground, it hasn't touched the plants on my balcony, which I am very happy about.

I saw snowdrops in bristol last week but nothing up here in the north!

Waaay too early, and it's freezing cold still!

The winter aconites in my garden were out the first week in January and we have had daffs in flower in the village for almost two weeks .

I noticed yesterday that the sun is now advancing in the garden, and the shade is beginning to retreat.

The light is different.

No, not here in the south of Denmark, nor do we expect any signs of spring until the end of February-beginning of March.

You must be very far south in England to see signs of spring already.

In my Scottish childhood January and February were definitely winter, too. I expect they still are.

According to the Irish calendar, which uses astronomical timing, spring starts on February 1st (Imbolc/St Brigid's Day

Felt a bit like it today as I began to prune the roses. They are beginning to shoot.

...and my husband is doing the hydrangeas as they have big, beautiful buds on them. He did them early last year and we had a terrific display which lasted way into autumn.

No real sign of spring in N Yorkshire but snowdrops have been out since the snows melted, two weeks ago. My Doronicum, which I think is supposed to flower around Easter, has one miserable flower but it last flowered in autumn, so it's probably just a very confused plant! Bulbs are barely breaking the surface.

Yes I’m seeing signs on my walks too 🌟

My walks down the river this week have shown both daffodils and snowdrops in full flower here in Edinburgh. Had a little chat with a robin who made it clear he wanted me to turn over some leaves that had mixed with mud from the storm, so I dud.

I think it's a false dawn.

We get excited about early flowering plants but it's still drearily chilly and getting dark quite early for a couple of months yet.

Some little signs of spring here in East Dunbartonshire.

I thought the OP's photo was winter aconite. Mine are doing well and snowdrops visibly white. I gloomily call all these late winter flowers though not signs of spring. Reports of early promises are v good to hear.

It does your heart good to see all the bulbs bursting through the soil.
Definitely lots of little signs of spring about, but in spite of the sunshine today it was definitely chilly.

Primroses have been in bloom in my garden since October.

The trees are getting that green haze before any leaves appear here in Bedfordshire - very cheering.

We have snowdrops and primroses out and lots of daffodils well above ground, so there is hope that spring is on its way.

We are miles behind here in the North East - my garden bulbs have barely broken through an inch or more.
I’m debating putting my white tulip Spring door wreath up tomorrow, but maybe that’s a month too soon.

I saw my first daffodil in a neighbour's garden yesterday, in amongst the snowdrops. Really made me smile. Spring is on its way

It certainly is in Kent today, Squiffy. We’ve had sunshine all day, and I saw the most beautiful Red Kite flying over the fields this morning when I took the dogs for a run. The Hellebores are flowering their socks off and the Snowdrops are in bud. I love the Spring too. 😊
