First bulbs of spring

Was driving down Oak Avenue in Hampton today and saw my first naturalised bulbs of the year.

Bulbs are one of my favourite things. The fact that they just hang out all winter for the first bit of warm weather and then appear out of nowhere with a fabulous show.

The bulbs in the park on Oak have been there a long time and have a nice natural feel to them. There are good and bad ways to naturalise bulbs and this is a pretty good one. In the next few weeks we should get the annual bulb show on Hampton Village green. I'll take a few pictures of that because it's a great example of how not to naturalise bulbs...

I was driving and couldn't stop to take a picture, so here's a nice picture of some other naturalised daffs instead.
