The thing is Loes they probably "go" in someone elses garden. I don't have cats of my own and I use moisturiser after shaving. That's why I look so young :P :P :P

Ian, probably as a result of having to deal with all sorts of noxious substances in his years at "work" and when printmaking, has the sensible habit of using a barrier cream on his hands before  gardening. This keeps a protective layer between him and any possible irritants ( myself excepted of course, it'd  take more than a  cream to protect anyone against me  :P) and makes his hands easier to clean afterwards.

A few years ago there was talk of commercial farming of Galanthus trojanus, so perhaps it is beginning to be more available now - I hope ;)

And there it is at long last, an up-angle view of Galanthus nivalis 'Flore Pleno' (2 photos); indeed very nice people who seem to like this plant well enough, as I do   :D
