Yes, I just need to get the right hat on - currently in my bulb cleaning hat, next my 'for goodness' sake get the seed heads off the alliums before they shed' hat, WOW - my RAIN hat ⚡!,(well that didn't stay on long), then my IT hat so that I can get all the info ready for the listings. Hopefully at the weekend 😊

Tomorrow will see the beginning of our ebay offerings for the summer. We have some exclusive and exciting items coming up, including several hard to come by galanthus, and our well-known and desirable Dryad Gold and Estonian Spirit snowdrops, and some VERY special miniature daffodils.
These will include the fabulous 'Fantine' - a multi-award-winning, stunningly elegant miniature from world-renowned Irish breeder Brian Duncan.
Dryad-bred daffodils include our new introductions Kalyke and Little Jen, and the always in demand Andy Blanchard and Trumpet Voluntary.
For people who are not interested in 'drops or 'daffs (I think there are a few out there somewhere) there are some rare Fritillarias too! Look for us on ebay selling as DRYADZNY.

Lovely daffs!  For those of you not quick enough on the mouse to get them from our mail order list, now is your chance.

[annew]

Fantastic Frits too!

There are currently 28 customers in the draw for the Dryad Gold Bullion. Much better odds that the National lottery! Open to all customers who spend more than £30-00 (not including postage) on snowdrops from our current list.

The current ebay offerings include two brand new daffodils 
The Fabulous 'Fantine' is a multi award-winning miniature cyclamineus hybrid. Supremely elegant, elongated flowers with white, fully reflexed perianth, and long, pale primrose yellow corona with a delicately flared mouth.
At the London Royal Horticultural Society show in 2018 it was awarded a ‘Grand Slam’ of the prestigious ‘Best Miniature’, ‘Best Any Other Division’ and ‘Reserve Best in Show’. This beautiful hybrid has many other awards, and is a great favourite with the judges. Likely to have a great future as an exhibition bloom.
My own ‘Kalyke’, newly registered, is a white hoop petticoat daffodil selected for its scented, glistening, pristine white flowers with the rim of the widely flared flowers gently rolled back.

[annew]

Our snowdrop selection starts with a pair of winning yellows.
‘Dryad Gold Medal’ is an ideal yellow to carry on the season from Gold Sovereign, flowering later, and with rounder and fuller flowers, this cultivar shares the same vigorous habit, is quick to increase and very free flowering.
The celebrated ‘Elizabeth Harrison’ is famed for hugely breaking the price record for a snowdrop when it was first introduced. A very beautiful yellow form of G. woronowii,  the golden yellow of the inner mark and ovary being beautifully set off by the deep green glossy foliage. A must in every collection and not often offered.

[annew]

Inverse poculiform ‘Corrin’, bred by Rannveig Wallis, is a very rare and superb, neat inverse poculiform with plump flowers bearing a double mark on the outer segments.

[annew]

Finally, four exceedingly rare miniature snowdrops: a virescent, a double, a yellow and a species!
‘Muku’ is a sweet miniature double (‘Muku’ means ‘lovely’ or ‘pretty’) which was discovered by that great plant-spotter Taavi Tuulik, in Estonia.
‘Schmalhans im Grünen’ is a rare and delightful dwarf virescent snowdrop from Hagen Engelmann’s garden, flowering at about 7cm high
‘Estonian Spirit Group 2009-CS10’ is one of the stunning Estonian Spirit Group of snowdrops - this clone performed outside on a raised bed very well here last winter.
Finally, a real little charmer – the very rare Galanthus transcaucasicus, a charming tiny species with glossy, dark green leaves, which frame the beautifully shaped little flowers hanging from a long ovary, and with a delicate mark on the inner segments.

Inverse poculiform ‘Corrin’, bred by Rannveig Wallis, is a very rare and superb, neat inverse poculiform with plump flowers bearing a double mark on the outer segments.

A beautiful snowdrop which has proved to do very well here in Aberdeen. I got it originally from the collection of our  late friend, David  Quinton. It is a superb reminder of him.

[annew]

It is that Maggi.
