Hi Ian how is your species collection going? I am hoping to get Galanthus lagodechianus in the next week or so. I think I will have about ten different species then.

Really nice finds. :) I like most 9715.

'Ray Cobb' is the earliest of my yellow snowdrops, flowering for the first time this spring. It is so small. :)

Very nice pictures, Richard.
I like them all.
It is a pity there are two snowdrops called Charlotte now.
The other one is a nivalis selected by Jan Huisman.
But I like the german one much better.
