by: Stephen BarstowPosted on: January 31, 2016 Garden and views 30th-31st January 2016 A Helleborus niger, Christmas Rose actually almost flowered at christmas. The flower bud seems to be unscathed by the bitterly cold weather after Xmas and it looks perfectly happy despite the roots being A lot of the snow disappeared from the garden over the last week with temperatures mainly on the plus side and we thankfully missed the worst of the winds on Friday night when a lot of damage was caused elsewhere along the Norwegian coast in a major storm “Tor” in which record wind speeds were recorded on the outer coast. A light snowfall this morning and the sun appeared. A working day in the garden coppicing a Hazel tree… A little sign of spring too with a Christmas Rose about to flower! Post Views: 153
