There are times when I would agree with you...  ;)

Sorry, folks, it's this abysmal weather...

Hans' wonderful snowdrop doing very well in my garden.

G. 'Hans guck in die Luft'


The first photo has my finger to show flower size and in the second it is to the left of the shot with G. 'George Elwes' to the front and right and G. 'Lapwing' behind - which will help you get an idea of its size.

Look closely and you will see  a second flush of flowers coming along which prolongs the display wonderfully.

A different experience today. A botanical artist called to the garden today to sketch, measure and photograph a snowdrop. It was Alan _bs' discovery from his friend's house in Ireland in Longraigue, Co. Wexford.

You can see the clump she is examining in front of her. Alan's snowdrop is doing very well here.

The compost heap in the background is not the most artistic, I suppose, but it is all part of gardening.

I always like to look at your snowdrop pictures, also because of the surroundings. :) Your beds and spring garden look so inspiring, and compost heap belongs to it. :)
'Longraique' looks like a good snowdrop, being so tall. Very nice.
