Anyone know of or have a photo of H. n. s. 'Amy Doncaster'?

When the swifts arrive empty the green house

Never heard of it, Mark - though there are plenty plants named after that lady..... umpteen pix of the snowdrop in the forum, for instance!   If anyone knows it will be bulborum (Roland) I would think.

I send Mark a link to a picture from Amy Doncaster a few weeks ago
Here I found in a valley the first real bluebell of the year in flower

Looks like spring begins

Though bluebells flower here 2 weeks earlier than 30 years ago, we never saw them in flower as early as March!

The region where we live (Mönchengladbach) is one of the very few in Germany where bluebells grow wild. To my delight, they show some variation, too.

In one of our woods we find some each year, but they´re not always stable.

A good white one is occasionally for sale; in our wood grow only blueflowered bracteate ones.
