February 2020 revisited

 February 2020 revisited

I consider it reassuring to know that in February 2022, snow drops still grow in our garden!



'24 February 1906
Cycled to Packwood through Solihull and Bentley Heath…In the garden of Packwood Hall adjoining the church yard the borders were full of large clumps of single snow drops.  I brought away a great bunch….Rode home seven miles in a storm of sleet and snow.'
