A new acquisition from Kurt this year is this precocious Galanthus peshmenii.

As Hagen said 'the season is open', at least in the West ! G. r.-o. 'Blanc de Chine', the first snowdrop to flower here in the open garden.

G. reginae-olgae subsp. reginae-olgae (and his varieties) has a reputation for not being very cold-hardy but this is in our opinion not the case. It already survived temperatures of -15 to -20°C in our garden (sandy soil) under a layer of leafmould. Picture: a very early flowering clone each year in the garden !

Checked the resting bulbs bunker (rural Essex) this morning as usual!

The great news is that 'Remember Remember' is just breaking surface! A great acquisition this year from Glen Chantry.

And so it begins again...
