Does the grass stay green?
.  I can see that the snowdrops have got taller while the snow has covered them and narcissi leaves are poking through the white stuff. It stopped freezing long enough today for the hellebores to stand upright, the leaves that I haven't removed yet by chilli lover

plants on a tree lined back drop
such as hellebores will add winter interest with foliage and flowers in late winter and early spring and there's a whole host of bulbs for spring colour too starting with winter aconites and snowdrops through crocuses and narcissus which can all be naturalised by biggarden_smallknowledge

Flowers we don't like?
plastic! I like the double ones and they are great for a site that doesn't like sun, where not many flowers will grow. I have a space like that and grow snowdrops, daffs, hostas, astilboides, hellebores, primulas, hemerocallis, chelone, Japanese anemones by artjak
