I planted some of these this past winter. They aren't showing their pretty little faces as yet. I can't wait to see them. Seeing yours has whetted my appetite for them even more.

Hm, I planted them too, still haven't seen them. Guess that's zones for ya! Happy spring.

This week has been strange. I know where to look for many of these bulbs now and I have been looking. One day there is no sign of them and the next day they are up and blooming. Or else I am going blind.

I don't believe I've heard of this plant. It is pretty.

Lovely photo! I planted pink Chionodoxas around the edge of my big Daphne; very pretty when they all bloom together.

Lola, the Chionodoxa is one of the "minor bulbs" of which there are millions of up here. Mostly they are the small blue ones.

That sounds like a good combo Daffodil Planter. The daphne here is too close to the path I think. We may have to rearrange the beds cause you can't move a happy daphne.
