any suggestions why snowdrops grew their usual strappy green leaves - but did not bloom earlier this year? they usually bloom. thank you.
I saw blooms around town, but mine were spotty. They bloomed, but faded quickly. I think the weather might have damaged the blooms in some cases.
ps - in case you wonder - no I don't have deer in this garden ------- tho I did see some nicely pruned early naturalized crocii in a neighbour's garden --- just as they were about to bloom (isn't that always the way, the buds are tastiest?) - chomp! to an even 1 inch shearing ;) I also have some mini daffodils "tete a tete" which are usually pretty sturdy - but some of those didn't bloom either (nice green leaves now) --- I wonder if the parched hot greater VAncouver BC summer has anything to do with it I don't usually feed bulbs (and I never dig them) - but I wonder if food would make a difference ie encourage blooms. thank you
