Season goes on. Here is a little flower, looking like an autumn TRYM.

2,5% best wishes

I knew I was missing something crucial in the mix!   Apparently I left it out of the 2009 mix for Diggory, 22 now 2 maybe, and Heffalump, 17 now 1 sickly. >:(

Surely our best wishes - and hopes - go into every potting mix? On a wing and a prayer as the airmen used to say. :D

Hello
Are these the types of snowdrop that usually flower in october and november? What species do grow at this time of year naturally? I am writing a short piece for a website www.landscapejuice.com about this and could I use some of the photographs of snowdrops that members have posted please?

Hello Carol, welcome to the SRGC Forum.
Yes, there are a  fair number of Galanthus that flower in the autumn.

I would imagine that most Forumists would be happy for you to use their photographs for non-commercial purposes, provided that proper credit is given both to the photographer and to the SRGC.

Use of photographs for commercial purposes should be agreed with the photographers.

 A search through the Forum will show you a great deal about snowdrops in general and about the autumn flowering types too..... the galanthophiles are some of the most enthusiastic of the SRGC Forumists!
