The snowdrops have been blooming for a while, but more plants are blooming in February. Many of the earlier bloomers benefit from the light they get before the trees and shrubs cast shade. The snowdrops and celandine are good examples of this. Periwinkle is green all year round, and wins the battle against many other plants in our garden.
