Conversely, John, I've artfully and with disdain scattered the walnuts and chestnuts (which I bravely repulsed in rooks before of course) to heighten the photographic eFFFect  ;D

I wish my Sofia was as good. It's flowered for the second time since 2007 but only 7cm high. I must move it or chip it

Mark I got it from Melvyn as a single bulb in July 2008. It seems very robust and has multiplied well.

Fantastic plants Tony!

Here also the first autumn flowering Galanthus have started.
First two G. peshmenii and a few G. reginae - olgae. As I love 'Greendrops' I adore especially last one given to me by a  very generous friend from the states last year.

Tony, you will not be surprised to know that I think it is a good plant but it is a real pleasure to see it being well grown.
