There's something so uplifting about seeing winter flowers pushing through the chilly earth to bring colour to our gardens again.

The best place to see snowdrops in Buckinghamshire is at Stowe Gardens where they carpet the slopes and valleys of the landscape garden, setting off the monuments and temples beautifully. On the Berkshire border is Cliveden, where you can see large islands of snowdrops in the Water Garden, near Blenheim Pavilion and throughout the estate.
