February marks the first signs of spring. Snowdrops, Crocus, and Iris reticulata push through the cold soil with delicate bursts of colour. Shrubs like Daphne odora, Hamamelis (Witch Hazel), and Camellia fill the garden with fragrance and early blooms. Heather (Erica carnea) carpets borders with pink and white flowers, while Primroses and Pulmonaria start to stir. Planting February-flowering varieties ensures early nectar for pollinators and a garden full of life before spring officially begins.
