Hello friends! Today I'm very busy and have a day off, and I won't work tomorrow either. I cleaned and washed all day. The weather in Hungary is very mild now, the temperature is between +8 and +18 during the day. In the afternoon I raked the walnut leaves in the garden, and what did I find! When I saw it, my heart jumped out of place, I immediately freed my little miracle from the wet walnut leaves. And look, the snowdrop opens on the 4th of January! Hooray! It's not really typical for snowdrops to open in January, but I read on google that they won't freeze, because these are not the traditional Hungarian varieties, but the Turkish snowdrop (Galanthus elwesii), which is native to the Balkans and Asia Minor. I have several types of snowdrops, I transplanted them from different places in my garden and there are some that bloom later. While in the previous century it was typical for snowdrops to bloom at the beginning of March and last for two weeks, nowadays it blooms at the end of January and the beginning of February, but can even last for a whole month. . I remember when I was at school, on Women's Day, on 8th March we always received snowdrops from boys and men.
