| | | first flowering plant 2007
My first flowering plant of 2007 was Lamium purpureum Today.
I have not conciously gone out looking due to the awful weather. |

Thats an early one. We're 'sposed to be getting some colder weather soon. Wonder if that will have any effect. |

No it is not an early one as they do flower all year round. I found it on my allotment.

The ones outside my front 'garden' don't flower all year. They usually start coming up in April. I make a point of not letting my girlfreind go over them with the mower.  |

Ive' also seen White dead nettle and Yarrow. Also i've noticed the Western Gorse has not stopped flowering, it has been going all through the seasons. |

Daisies, dandelions, gorse never seem to stop flowering - the first peculiarity I've seen is Geum urbanum (wood avens?) been flowering at the edge of the wood for a week or two. |

Have had snowdrops out in flower since just after christmas and saw an Ornamental Cherry tree with some close to opening buds on my way to work this morning.
All of the bulbs in the garden have started growing and some are nearing the flowering stage (mainly daffs). | | | |
