bulb planting

Hi,

I got the last of my bought (mass produced in the Netherlands) bulbs in
the ground this week. It has been a struggle because whilst October (in
England) was mild, calm and dry, November has been constant rain.

The only flowers at the moment are nerine bowdenii, these have been a
couple of months later than usual. I have previously sent seed to the
AGS SeedEx. I got the AGS seed list last week, I've had no seeds so far.

The newspapers this week had photos of daffodils flowering in England
("due to the mild weather"). Somewhere there must be nerine and
narcissus flowering together.

The standard snowdrops (galanthus nivalis) have just poked their noses
above ground level.
