I like the dainty marks on the outers of this G. lagodechianus.

I like the dainty marks on the outers of this G. lagodechianus.

The anthers shine through the inners, giving them a pink-orange flush - very pretty!

Here is an unnamed very early G. nivalis - it has been in flower for several weeks

The green ones look superb against a white background.

CORNWOOD was looking like yours and very early too ...

Just a small group of good old S. Arnott.

(Bought from Shauney. Many thanks. )

[Anne Repnow]

S. Arnott is such an excellent garden drop!

CORNWOOD was looking like yours and very early too ...

Thank you, Hagen, it really does look very similar!

Sun shining today, before the windy weather arrives! A green tipped theme is the order of the day.

First Caryl Baron, the clawing of the outers is very distinctive of this drop.



Snow Angel a very vigorous scharlockii. I have given away clumps of this variety and it still returns the same number the following year.



Greenfinch an old and well loved favourite.



Kildare another vigorous drop, which like many of the green-tipped drops seems to deliver intermittent markings on the outers.



Betty Hansell, a delightfully quirky, green-tipped double.

[Leena]

Nice green tipped snowdrops, I especially liked 'Greenfinch'. It's green seems darker than in the others.
Ingrid, you have posted many yellow snowdrops in January, is it that they are earlier, or do you have them in more sheltered place?

Hi Leena, I have only shown a small fraction of my yellows, there are plenty more to come. My climate is warmer and dryer than the rest of the UK, so many of my drops come early. I keep them in pots and in the garden, so it is a mix.
