Magnificent snowdrop Hagen and good name !

It is a while since I posted, so try out to post one.

Maybe a moment to add one to show the diversity of scharlockii: Aragnee  (8 petalled poculiform) picture of last year.

What a fantastic scharlockii Johan, I am absolutely amazed :o

Great to "see" you again Johan!  I hope you are well?

Your snowdrop reminds me of a favourite poem which begins......
Araignée grise, Araignée d'argent, ton échelle exquise tremble sous le vent..........

Thanks, I am ok, lovely poem.
Our son just loves the beasts on 8 legs and this snowdrop as well,
but got himself in a gypsum cast on one of his, for 3 more weeks...

Another of the same type: Arachnofobia
