Verdant
Verdantique
Verderer
Verdict
Verdigris
Verditer
Verdure

Still a few verd...s left, I think, although I cannot be sure that none of the others remain unused.  And has Verdi yet been added to the 'composers' series?

Hello All,
Just popped onto the forum to see what's happening in snowdrop world and found myself smiling at all the dry wit on here!  You are funny Alan  ;)

I lifted a lattice pot today to donate a few Fieldgate Prelude to a friend.  Was amazed that one bulb had turned into 22 bulbs.....but they all looked staggy  :'(    So the question is....can you soak the dormant bulbs in fungicide right now?  I have only ever soaked them when they are in growth.

Its comforting to see familiar names and faces again.
