Janis gave me the inspiration for this april topic.
Here is another G. nivalis poculiforme.
It came from a churchyard so it is called GEDENKEMEIN.
Looks very different to Janis`s one.
-
This is an excellent find Hagen ;D
-
I named it 'Poculi Perfect', but it is not my breed - I baught stock from Czech friend who found this plant in nature. Afraid that it is too late for me to becoms "galanthophile", for me is sufficient to be in "croconut" club ;D

Janis the world of croconut has much much more colors. So I often like to walk in your world too. It is a big pleasure.

It is Anthony and very nice shape indeed.

very nice shape indeed.
Exactly what I thought. I also like Finchale Abbey (but I quickly killed the one sent to me by a kind forumist).

It is very interesting to see these rare species in the wild, Dimitri, thank you for showing them.

Anne, it is in my garden, not in the wild!!!! ;D
-
Thanks for posting Dimtri. I have memories of krasnovii and platyphylus (some people can be very generous) flowering in my garden, but it is a delight to see more pics and especially valentinae.
-

I suppose it could be variable, Brian, as all drop species! But this year I have only 2 plants blooming from my total 4 plants of G. trojanus.
-
Hello Dimitri, what a fabulous selection of plants, like Brian I think the G.platyphyllus from Krestovy Pass is particularly nice.
Many thanks for showing us.

Thanks, Melvyn! Welcome home - very showy trip in Greece - many thanks for sharing with us!
It's first time I have flowering this platyphyllus from Krestovy Pass that I've got from a friend from Nalchik - I'm surprised even more than you to see such not orthodox inner segment coloration of it))))
-
Josef Jurášek advertises seed of Galanthus trojanus. I have some, but they have yet to germinate.
-

Anne, it is in my garden, not in the wild!!!! ;D
Then you are a lucky man!
-
Thank you Dima, I enjoy your fantastic gallery of unusual galanthus. Yes the inner whole green platyphyllus is one of the best.
-
I had wandered away from the Galanthus thread for this year as I thought the season was over. Brian spoke to me on the phone yesterday and told me to have a look at Dimitri's wondering photographs.
Thank you Brian for telling me - and thank you Dimitri for posting pictures of these wonderful flowers. Great minds think alike.... I too particularly like Graecus Green, Nivalis F1, platyphyllus from the Krestovy Pass. 8)
And of course Chuguyster ;D
-
not at all, Hagen!
thanks, John! want make an experiment with my Chuguyster - to try infect a normal plant of nivalis just to see is it contagious infection that lead to such phenotype or it is smth else........
-
Dimitri - Wonderful snowdrops. And you grow them outdoors in the garden there?
Can you tell us something of your climate in Kiev? Do you have hot dry summers, late springs? I see you say Zone 5 so I assume you can fall to -26C to -32C (-15F to -25 F). Is this with snow cover as a rule? Rainfall?
Keep posting.

Spring has come to us ... first appeared on Saturday Galanthus caucasicus ... The last 40 cm of snow are disappearing at enormous speed. And this is what came out of the snow yesterday during the day.
-
Gosh Natalia, in your second picture is the alpinus sitting in a depth of water or is it ice?
-
My last indoor snowdrop - Galanthus krasnowii - not sufficiently hardy outydoors here.
Janis
-
Janis, the pic is best, the name of the pic is OK.
But what do you mean with Galanthus worinowii???

Oh stupid Janis ;D :'( ;D Mistake in printing - now corrected.
Janis
-
Galanthus krasnovii - it`s very special. I like it also very much.
I thought it is hardy enough for East Germany. But it is not!!!
So I learnt this winter the same lesson like Janis.
-
the last pics of them at me - end of bloomtime :-\ :-\
G. krasnovii ex Abkhazia - overwinter outdoors in my garden in SE Ukraine
my lovely Liussia)) 14 years old
G. trojanus - hope this time it would be with seeds))))
G. plicatus variegata Savrasska, Crimean selection
G. nivalis Chuguyster with flower stalk that grows all time!

Thanks, John! yes, these species I grow in my garden in SE Ukraine, outdoors. This isn't in Kiev (that is more in the North of Ukraine) but in Donetsk. Hot summer, severe continental climate, rainy autumn till December, snowy January till March, it could be frosts up to -24C but with snow
-
lovely plants Natalia
This morning some white in one of my troughs caught my eye. I have two very late G. elwesii Michael Myer's Green Tipped
-
Thank you, Mark!
I would like to show more snowdrops, but can not do it, as we all do: (
-
Natalia, why not???
I like the very late pics from "far" east.
You bring some more long weeks in our Galanthus season.

Hagen, I think it is because we cannot post photos to the Forum at this time. :)
-
OK Maggi, I understand.
-
Slightly late because of changes on our forum, I want to show some Galanthus that bloomed in my garden this spring.
-
Never too late Natalia ;D That first picture is super, I think they are great when the petals sweep back like that.
-
Thank you, Brian!
Similar to the snowdrop flower Cyclamen - a very interesting, but good and galanthus plitsatus 4 photos - two flower on a stalk. I am very pleased that the selection in the culture repeated his features.
-
Two weeks on and I have two more flowers on elwesii Michael Myers Green Tipped. They are small flowers. The photos are not the best due to the very dull day
-
Yes Mark, we had better times ;D.
-
Hey Natalia,
fresh pics of fine plicatus in May. And some pics of beautiful G. krasnovii. Thank you so much.
To find these species in the garden now, would be fine. But to wait so long..... :(.
For you it is normal and your pics are fantastic.
But I cannot answer with galanthus pics. Time is over :'(.
-
Hagen, thank you for the evaluation of photographs! :)
But that is not G. krasnovii - I am convinced of this, in fact, finding a true G. krasnovii in places where it was confirmed Artyushchenko vegetation and other experts on the flora of the Caucasus.
Compare photos and see for yourself ...
-
Natalia, I love them all. :)
