Galanthus woronowii seems to like this part of my garden.
Close-up of my best finding: trym-type woronowii

There was a trym-type woronowii on sale on eBay (UK) last year.  I wonder what became of that one?

...would be interesting to know. Does anybody know more details?

Can anyone help ? I bought this snowdrop last year in GB at rareplants as 'Pusey green tips'. It isn't, but what is it

A late no-name, I think G.elwesii

Hello to all,
here are some of my findings from this year.
It is not a complete poculiform, although it looks like one.


Another one, more incomplete


Interesting looking one, I hope this feature to be stable.


Complete poculiform


Nice strong marking.


I love those strong dots on inner petals.


Complete poculiform


Four petalled one? A real one?


A gold nugget. My first thought when I saw it.


Another complete poculiform.


Definitely stable four petalled one, although some biggest ones had 5 petals.


Nice, elongated petals, I love that one.


That is not all, although, those are most interesting ones.

A super set of variations, Chris. The poculiforms are glorious!

I found 7 incomplete (more or less looking complete) poculiform ones and 8 complete poculiform... Once even 4 in one spot. But I couldn't photograph them all together, so I took those two most near to each other. Here is a poor photo:
