That sounds interesting.
I think there is a book on snowdrops coming from Timber Press in the next year or so.

Wim, that seems to be the one though the blurb indicates it deals with quite a restricted selection of snowdrops only - sixty described.

It's interesting to speculate how many snowdrops you would need if you restricted yourself to distinctive snowdrops you could identify at a glance.  60 might be about right to meet that criterion. 
Almost in Scotland.
