Bulbocodium

I've had a small group of B. vernum out in one of the smaller beds for 9
years. (I think it is still there.) I haven't noticed it increasing in
size, but maybe I should go check on it, now that the snow is almost all
gone. I planted 5 bulbs in October 2001.
The only things up and blooming so far are Galanthus elwesii in bloom and
G. nivalis in bud. Some of the Narcissus have flower buds up 2 or 3 inches
as well.
