Galanthus in November 2017

[Rick Goodenough]

Thank you, Mariette,

Yes, it is a lovely selection for a November bloomer. Both the ovary and the outer segments are a bit longer than is typical. I am glad you like it.

We've got a drop coming out in the garden - unusual for us at this time of year.... Ian's taken its pic for the Bulb Log tomorrow.
 I assume it's a reginae-olgae - they all look the same to me, as you know!!

Maggi, it is fun to have them coming out and blooming so early...I will keep my eye out for Ian's Log. Rick

This is my early to mid November blooming G. elwesii monostictus, 'Mayfair Chapel' selection still blooming toward the end of November.

Lovely pictures Ian. So much to do and so little time. Getting very cold here now.

Thank you Maggi. Another beautiful Bulb Log from Ian. Beautiful rich autumn colors help make the transition to winter a bit easier...and the snowdrops and other autumn bloomers add to the beauty of the crisp autumn days.

Surprise after a delivery of G. elwesii Snowdrops
After opening of a late delivery with Galanthus elwesii bulbs I was surprised to find two already flowering bulbs inside of the paket.
Some of other bulbs had sproutes 1-2 cm, and some other had not any sprouts. I selected the bulbs in three groups and planted they separate. Next year I will see, if there differences in flowering dates.
