Mark,

Great pics.  Love that South Hayes with it's unusual shape and markings.  Is 'Sibbertoft Manor' supposed to have markings as in your picture?  If so, what I have here and rave about as lovely most definitely isn't the actual 'Sibbertoft Manor'.  I'm assuming that the one in your picture is an abberation, as I can't see one with markings like that being named anway?

Really wonderful pics!  So clear and "pure".  Great stuff!!  8)

Anne I have just acquired South Hayes and my supplier ( a very well known grower) who twin scales has told me that a small percentage of those produced do not have the correct markings and indicated that this was a mutation and would not be recoverable. He told me that if this were to happen to mine it would be replaced FOC. I am holding my breath

Cool.  Just had to check.  I didn't want my favourite Galanthus to actually be mislabelled!!  ;D

It seems to me that South Hayes is not stabile enough, after twinscaling it can degenerate to the form where it came out, that happens with other plants as well.

Hi all,
only a careful question. What is it? G.elwesii elwesii or G. gracilis? Where is the border? Or is it a ssp. from G. elwesii???
The much of us can`t have the yellow VIRIDAPICE from mrohowes. Where is the problem?

Look at this ... Galanthus 'Phil's Fancy' supplied by Stella Tracey. It was photographed in a Devon garden. I believe 'Phil' is Phil Cornish who informed me today, and I think discussed elsewhere, that this is his last year selling snowdrops "I have no drops of interest to sell this season as my stock is almost out , losses have been heavy, & I intend to stop after this year to concentrate on getting some growth going"

Resurrecting an old thread here.  Anne - did you hear back from the supplier? I would be curious to see how the flower looks this year.

With kind regards
