Mmmmm. I like Wandlebury Ring. Guess it''ll have to go on my ever-increasing wants list?
David I have seen this snowdrop in only 3 gardens including one over here. While Wendy fetches around £15, and more on Ebay, I expect Wandlebury Ring to be up for auction when released or at least be around £40 to £50 from a supplier. I have no actual idea on costs those quoted are guesses. The one over here was a gift and those in England were flowering groups from twinscaled gifts. I'm sure the big boys are bulking it.
Chris, you say '.......... looking for some evidence that it is what it says on the label....' Again, you are an experienced grower, I am a novice, so how do you tell me what to look for, or, are all of us, really, just second guessing?
I wouldnt buy it from Ebay because that is where someone will sell Wendy as Wandlebury. I would only buy it from a supplier like the Snowdrop Company, Monksilver or off Avon's special list.Out of interest do you own the snowdrop book?

Alan, in your reply you refer to '.......the differences are not large, at least to the untrained eye......'. You are obviously an experienced Snowdrop grower but how would you go about explaining to the novice just what the differences are between Wandlebury Ring and Wendy's Gold firstly because I would like to know, but secondly, and more importantly, today's novice has to be tomorrow's expert.
