Simon's Blog - Snowdrops

For many they are the one of the first signs of spring and thanks to our damp and mild winter, they have been popping up all over the region for a couple of weeks already.

But did you know that they smell of honey and have medicinal qualities? Well these were just some of the things I discovered about snowdrops when I headed off to Welford Park just outside Newbury to meet up with Deborah Puxley.

You can see the magnificent carpets of snowdrops for yourself until Sunday 6th March, click here for more info.
