If 'Tatjana' gets a bigger distribution there will be much confusion with 'Tatiana' when mentioned by name

Hi all, after asking the finder of TATJANA, the puzzle has an end. TATJANA isn`t near white, so I have shown you false pics. Sorry so much. I believed in the book SNOWDROPS. Between the autors and the founder, the are also some misunderstandings.

For some clarity I show you the most actuelly picture of TATJANA:

Hi Hagen ,

Many thanks for your work with making clear this point !

I can now say all my plants from Czech. Rep. from this finder are correctly named -I'm really glad for it !

I hope in the next version of Snowdropbook is this missunderstanding correctet too ( the wrong name and the wrong pic )

Thank you
Hans

 To all appearances the season of white fever goes by in UK ??? But here in east germany we have the best flowering time of the Bohemians now. I have a few STREIFEN-WEH to swap.

I am ever hopeful that there will not be a new version, but an addendum of the ones that were not included and new discoveries :)  It could otherwise be a bit unmanageable.

I think a new edition with many more photographs would be welcome.

Perhaps, with hindsight, the second edition missed the boat? It's alright for those who can afford Mark's 'dirty' and 'clean' copies (perhaps by selling excess plants on Ebay?), but I'm certainly not buying a second copy when the difference is minimal and virtually pointless.

my idea :

a online version of a snowdrop book .....so it was easy to make corrections and add pictures or better informations ...
