Shoots already? Danielle Cowell, 19 November 2009 Pupils from Oakfield Primary School asked: 'When will the bulbs sprout?'Normally, I would say 'nothing much will happen until after Christmas', but some bulbs have already decided to pop up through the soil!Pupils from Pentrepoeth Junior School reported: 'We were very surprised to find the shoots and we have now noticed a few more in our flowerbeds. I am attaching a photo for you to see.'From studying the photograph, although I can't be 100% sure, they certainly look like daffodil shoots. Compare my photograph from last year - what do you think?Please leave a comment if you see any early shoots or email any photographs to scan@nmgw.ac.ukMany Thanks, Professor Plant Danielle Cowell Learning, Participation & Interpretation Manager (NRLM) Contact Danielle Cowell Comments - (4) Comments are currently unavailable.

Sychdyn School 27 November 2009, 11:40 I have attached some photographs of our planting at Sychdyn school. This year our Year 6 children were 'helped' by our Year 1 children. They all had a super time deciding where to plant their bulbs and we have been collecting our weather data carefully. Reply to Hubberston 27 November 2009, 11:39 That is interesting. I think perhaps this mild weather we have been having, up until recently has confused the bulbs a little. Hopefully, the frost we are expecting this weekend won't damage your bulbs. These daffodils are very tough - but keep us posted in the spring. keep up the good work. Professor Plant Hubberston School - Milford Haven 26 November 2009, 09:17 Hi! Professor Plant. Yes our bulbs appeared early last week too. Much too early we thought. The children were thrilled.
