Anybody who has read the Abingdon Herald will have seen that the Snowdop is ‘Plant of the Week’. This group are in the Abbey Gardens. The Herald says snowdrops are a little late this year because of all the snow.
There was even a flurry of snow overnight, but having wrapped themselves up tight the snowdrops have survived to brighten up another day.
Surprisingly snowdrops require the temperatures to be at least 6deg before they flower, which is what it was last weekend and that must have been our warmest weekend of the year.
