« on: January 18, 2011, 01:57:54 PM »

I grow since some years Galanthus rizehensis - this here is a autumn flowering form !
It flowers normaly in November ....in this winter with a lot of cold and snow is it a little later than normal .
This plants comes from the Rize area .

all my other rizehensis have a good life in a pot in a tunnel. But this poor one I lost in the ground. It is the third winter outside. A real little hero in my eyes.

Super little G.rizehensis Hans, flowering in the autumn is a great bonus.  My ordinary rizehensis has dropped today. ;D

We tend to get over-excited by the named snowdrop cultivar of the moment but here is Hans J. with a Galanthus species doing something which (AFAIK) was hitherto unknown in that species - autumn flowering.  In many respects that is much more interesting; congratulations Hans.

Thank you Alan ,

Yes - I confess my main interest are species Galanthus  ;)
...but the problem is they are sometimes more difficould than any cultivars ( which are mostly elwesii ,nivalis or plicatus or hybrids )

Have you also seen the other autumnflowering Galanthus from today ( G.caspicus )

What you mean with "AFAIK" ? sorry but I'm not so familar with your language  ;D

English "shorthand" Hans....AFAIK  means As Far As I  Know

Some others are...... IIRC = If I remember Correctly
IMO = In My Opinion
BTW = By The Way

Hope that helps!  ;)
