Is has been very mild the past months, so some plants
are still growing whilst others are blooming before their time. Some of the
winter-flowering plants are giving their best show ever this year... so no snow
but instead large amounts of white flowers!
Helleborus niger (left) is also known as the Christmas
rose, and this year this name proved to be factual. Prunus subhirtella
'Autumnalis' (middle) is also known as the Japanese winter cherry as it flowers
between November and March; normally with few flowers in between cold-spells
but this year in masses of blushed white blossoms. Viburnum tinus, originally
from Southern Spain, is widely planted for its winter blooms. Never before did
I see so many on this Laurestine.
