Take your marks!

The race is on.
In Mid February I snuck off to the wilds of the Shire of York and bought 
"a Snowdrop or two"; four pots in fact.
Two are, supposedly, "early"; i.e. this year as opposed to next and, hopefully, before Christmas. One did flower, mid October, and was promptly eaten. 
Anyway, to the Blip:-

In the left lane  -  some G. Viridapice sitting up instead of "way down", though one or two of the way-downs are also showing face. I have no photo of any of mine earlier than 25th Jan.

In the right lane - this year's "earlies".
I await the result(s) with baited breath.
