I hope you won't mind if I give the 'proper' description of 'Dryad Artemis' here. I need it to be published somewhere to establish the name, and I can give this reference with its registration.
Galanthus 'Dryad Artemis’ is a beautiful and elegant snowdrop with neat and graceful flowers and an upright habit. It is vigorous and increases well. Artemis was the goddess of chastity and the hunt, and the sleek shape of the plant and purity of the crisp markings of the flower is a tribute to those qualities, while the inner mark is reminiscent of an ancient Greek bow.
