  1. Hi Kelly

    Your photos are lovely. So is that what aconite looks like. We have taken aconite homeopathically for years . Its an incredible healer. That middle photo is exceptional. The way the light falls is beautiful. I tried to grow snow drops last winter as they are truely my favourite but our climate is still too warm.They came out short and the flower was tiny. I love it when the grow in groups like that. I bet you are excited about Spring.

    Warm regards
    Suzanne

  3. You know the pictures just don't do justice. The flowers are so, so beautiful and I just couldn't get a really great photo. Suzanne, I thought the same thing about the aconite. We use homeopathy lots too. The aconite plant used for the aconite remedy looks very different to the winter aconite. It is bigger and has purple or white flowers. Snowdrops are lovely and so delicate. I love the crocuses which will follow soon but best of all my favourite flowers are magnolias which flower at this time too and remind me of my gran and always warm my heart.

    Suzanne, did you see the snails pic on my earlier post. I am so eager for you and your Aaron to see them!!!
