You may think these
#snowdrops are in a woodland glade. They are however underneath a native hedgerow that we planted many years ago, at the side of a road in an urban street in the middle of town. We need to recognise and maximise our front#gardens as habitats for#wildlife.pic.twitter.com/bd5qGwIY0v

1st Feb is
#Imbolc (or Imbolg - ‘in the belly’), a#Gaelic celebration of the start of#Spring & the quickening of new life. It is the day of the fire goddess#Brigid as she brings blessings to the hearth & fertility to the land.#Snowdrops are her footprints.#FolkloreThursdaypic.twitter.com/3n9LbJILKI

#Snowdrops got their name from the drop earrings worn by ladies of the English court in the 16th century, rather than drops of snow. In Greek they are Galanthus Nivalis which means “milk flower of the snow”.#Painting by Stanley Spencer, 1955.#Imbolc#February1st#Candlemaspic.twitter.com/NYl2sEb9xG

#Snowdrops are also known as Fair Maids of#February, because traditionally they are the first flowers to have pushed through the cold winter earth by#Imbolc on#February1st. Snowdrops are symbols of the new life that comes in the#Spring after the harshness of winter.pic.twitter.com/3kmfqMpegK

‘If snowdrops are appearing then the earth must be wakening...the snowdrop says that winter is not forever.’ From January, The Wood’ by John Lewis-Stempel

Let us know where you spot them, we will add them to our growing page: https://www.explorechurches.org/english-snowdrops …#LoveChurches#Snowdrops pic.twitter.com/ofNnfMtRNQ

Frail gifts from
#Nature's half-reluctant hand... I see the signs of#spring about the land... These chill#snowdrops, fresh from wintry bowers, Are the forerunners of a world of#flowers.

Galanthus Phil Cornish, one of my all time favourites. Named after a great galanthophile who found many beautiful snowdrops. And a lovely man.
