Ugly snow, beautiful green
After shooting spring crocuses by the roadside in Färila last spring, I decided to plant some of my own so I’d have easy access to the first flowers of the year. Said and done, in September I planted some crocus and snowdrop bulbs, hoping that my first ever effort at gardening would produce some results. Whatever I had expected, I can say for sure that it wasn’t this – they have already started to grow!
This is right under my kitchen window. The place gets a lot of sun and little snow, so the part closest to the house is already free of snow. Some plants obviously can’t wait but shoot right through!
I wish I remembered what I planted and where, so I’m not 100% sure which leaves are crocuses and which are snowdrops. Snowdrops are known to push through snow, but these leaves are very crocus-like… I hope I get some snowdrops anyway, because I have never seen one before!
