Some stunning introductions from Andy Byfield:

First, G. valentinei Fridge Magnet a wonderful, new, vigorous beauty as can be seen from the clump, with a lovely green fade on the inner.

Another new special G. Ate Tea a delightful rizehensis with a striking inner marking and great shape.

Yes we've already seen those on the January 2020 thread.  I only hope they are being bulked up to be more generally available soon for everyone.

Those are two lovely yellows, Brian! Very delectable - I can't wait. And unlike so many new ones these look really golden yellow.

Indeed! Brian, would You mind showing ´Goldsmith´again when the inners are visible?

Not introductions, just two seedlings I like.

Well 'Lemon and Lime' looks lovely and 'Goldsmith' looks intriguing, although we cannot see the inner markings yet.  Are these snowdrops you have originated, Brian,?
Almost in Scotland.

I have amended my previous post Alan - as you can see there is now a picture of the inner marks on 'Goldsmith'.

A new byzantinus,  ‘Albatross’ from Andy Byfield, a very vigorous variety with lovely inner markings. Bulked up tremendously in a year.
