The shapely flowers of ´Ketton´ with their dainty marks make this old variety unmistakable.

The buds of ´Blonde Inge´appear yellowish next to the flowers of ´Anglesey Abbey´.

It took ´Maidwell L ´11 years to build this small group, but now I like it together with its companion.

This is Claud Biddulph, a new acquisition for me. I know nothing about it!

Bit of a white theme this morning!

First up, Quatrefoil, bulking well and very large flowers.

634776-0

White Perfection, took some time to establish but is increasing well.

634778-1

Seraph, now several clumps and a firm favourite.

634780-2

EA Bowles, reliable and one of the classics.

634782-3

Lucy, another snowdrop in the 'weed' category, increases like fury for me, despite giving loads away.

634784-4

I wished I lived a lot closer so I could come over to help you with the weeding  ;D

Very mild weather right now - in this video Ian Young is enjoying the warmth of the sun on his back as much as all the flowers as he walks around his Aberdeen garden. And yes,  the dirty glasshouse windows have been mentioned to him!



Note Ian's  very  perceptive and insightful  comment on galanthus - "there are  large snowdrops and small snowdrops"  - yup, I think he's  got  all the cogent info right there!   ;D ;) :D

Ingrid, I guess there are many around willing and happy to give you a hand with your weed;-)

By the way, is anyone of the forumists attending the 'Schneeglöckchentage' in Mannheim this weekend? I will be there on both days.
