Is it worth collecting some of the berries and potting them up?

Stage 1 - berries collected
Stage 2 - get seeds from berries and dry
Stage 3 is place in sandy soil and leave in fridge for 12 weeks - so next update after Christmas

Update. Berries still chilling in fridge as it said "3 months".
Also have some in a pot outside. 2 other members are also giving it a go as the tree has now gone.

A sight to cheer a grey day. Almost 12 months after I posted a similar picture.
Found in the woodland area next to these Fields this morning

Love them Janice. Such delicate and welcome flowers. Despite the recent very cold snap, I notice lots of bulbs have woken up.

Potted a few shoots peeping through the leaf mould. We've got a few daffodils in bud but these snowdrops are the first to flower.
Love them - a sign Spring is nearly here.
