That must be a cross with Galanthus koenenianus, famous to smell of urine ;D ;D ;D

Have y'all seen Galanthus 'David Baker' is listed on Ebay? This has to be this year's triple figure seller.

Not a good example in that photo. It's much nicer in the book.

Doesn't really grab me. Apart from the obvious one (that is beyond my reach) in that post, I like 'Ballerina'.
