I dont know where it grows but to me this Galanthus looks similar to G. bortkewitchianus. Not sure about the spelling

 I have read that Galanthus alpinus ssp. bortkewitchianus is only known from its type locality in the Caucasus, near the river Kamenka   ::)  :-X    And it would be convolute, would it not?

I would like to grow more species. Galanthus alpinus alpinus seems to be very elusive. It is so different from bortkewitchianus.
