Galanthus woronowii - different selections from the wild, W Transcaucasus, Russia

Any chance of a leaf close-up or cross section picture for comparison with G.ikariae?

Dima told me he has not yet got the ikariae sections prepared.
Exactly, Maggi. But me, I differ easy the all three taxa by simple morphology))) no need for leaf section

You misunderstood me, Dima, I was asking for a leaf close up or cross section picture of Galanthis wornowii to compare with Galanthus ikariae. No one has provided this yet.

I was hunting for special galanthus in our forrests - here are some pictures.
I hope, they are stable. The plant with two flowers on a stem was really a clump of 3 bulbs - and all showed this peculiarity

Lina  - Bought as Magnet but turned out not to be Magnet.

Wiki - "An impostor or imposter is a person who pretends to be somebody else, often to try to gain financial or social advantages through social engineering, but just as often for purposes of espionage or law enforcement.
False pretenders to various thrones used to be common. "   I like Pretender to the Throne!

Unknown would be more precise.

Thank you, John.
I knew the translation, but did not understand what it means in relation to the snowdrop.

Most generously I got one bulb of three from a friend of her find. Obviously it had the idea of getting inverse poculiform, but did not really make it true. Does anybody grow something similar?
