Brian,
is there a second garden in UK with such a lot of fine clumps?
And friendly owners too?

Miss Wilmott is really lovely. :)
It is good to see the snowdrop clumps, how the leaves are compared to the flowers. Many times in the internet or books there is only a picture of the flower (which is important of course).

Here's another picture of a group of 'Miss Willmott' from Glen Chantry.  I'm told by Wol and Sue that this will be for sale at Myddleton house as will 'Yaffle'.
