It's nearly February and the snowdrops are poking their heads up - always a welcome sight. There are over 20 species of snowdrops the most common being Galanthus nivalis.
In North Yorkshire Fountains Abbey always has an amazing display of snowdrops and if you are down in London the Chelsea Physic Garden has a very interesting display with several rarities. Chelsea Physic Garden is the oldest botanic garden in London and was established in 1673 by the Worshipful Society of Apothecaries - well worth a visit!
Have you done your RSPB Garden Bird survey? It's not too late if you do it today!
