This Monday there were only two entries.
First a potfull with a Crocus which originally came from forumist Thomas Huber:

Crocus laevigatus Dark Form       

and probably one of the last nerines this year:
Nerine manselli

Such a small number is very unusual, Luit.  But these two are very smart  8)

Among the few entries this week was a pot with a snowdrop (this pot was also shown last week when I was tied up with other business), which normally flowers in January. Here at least a month earlier than normally.
Time for year-round drops   ??? :-\
Might be interesting (or puzzling) for people affected with the white fever  ;D ;D   :-X
