And some more ...
 The general structure of Galanthus plicatus came from the Crimea.

I do not know, whether are green stains, the various form of a petal and a flower-turban morphological infringements or forms - will observe - time will show.

Mark, in the spring of hope will remain visible signs of a culture or not ..

 Again soon in the mountains, so hopefully I will see again blooming Galanthus. And try to take pictures of interesting forms.

Lovely photos Natalia

I love species Galanthus and it is very interesting to see the natural variations.  They look so beautiful growing in their natural habitat as nature intended with their perfect growing conditions.  The woronowii with the long pedicel is very nice indeed.  Thankyou for sharing your photos.

Natalia - what a wonderful array of diverse flower forms you have found.  I have glanced at the pictures today but am sure I will find myself coming back to look at them again and again.  Beautiful.   8)

Thank you.

Colleagues, thanks for kind words, I am very glad that you liked photos. :)

Some of the shown plants already live in a garden, two years white form Galanthus krasnovii_valentinae blossoms completely. As the others will behave - will show time.
I worry because of last hot and dry summer. Galanthus krasnovii_valentinae grows along water, and sometimes almost in the tideway of streams.  :(
