I believe this is the normal time of year for Cyclamen coum to bloom here; they tried last year only to be blasted with sub zero temps just as the first blooms opened, but this winter I get to see the sweet little blooms!

Crocus sieberi 'Firefly' is always early, but has never started blooming quite this early.

Rijnveld's Early Sensation has a single bloom open- I've seen them show color as early as Christmas before.

A single Jan Bos hyacinth is showing color- the earliest I've ever had a hyacinth blooming.
