Missing the Snowdrops
Posted by

In England, the snowdrops have been out for several weeks. I am missing them again this year. To miss the snowdrops is a sad thing for me.
I was born in January and in England, the snowdrop is the flower of a January baby.
Many. many years ago, more than twenty to be exact, I visited Kingston Lacy Gardens with a friend and my little son.
As this visit was in the summer, I missed the snowdrops.
I hope I get to see them at least once at Kingston Lacy. Buckfast Abbey Gardens and Grounds, especially the walk by the River Dart, is a great place for snowdrops.
A humble, small, yet brilliant flower....a little homage to it here.
Are there any readers who can tell me if the snowdrops are still blooming somewhere in the south of England?
