The day before yesterday we had a fine one on the way, at the curious tubular stage, tall and pointed with a swollen base, but yesterday it did not look at all well.
While today we have one in full bloom, snapped left. Back on the left, front in the middle. With a small but pretty, petalled flower to be seen at the base, inside the bulb. At least that is what it looked like - with the diagram offered by Bing having confused me.
And right is a second plant, neatly decapitated by something or other. Perhaps the slugs and snails - of which there are no doubt plenty hiding under the ivy and elsewhere - are fond of them?
