Does anyone have any spare flat leaved Wendy's Gold ie normal plicate leaves and not rippled edges

Is there such a thing?  We searched long and hard for those fabled Wendy's Gold with twin scapes, although we eventually found some.

Now we are going round in circles, Mark.

But it's an interesting point that 'Wendy's Gold' has now been around long enough that we are starting to see diversity in the cultivar.  So there is a twin-scaped variant and a flat leaved variant. 

By the way, rippled edges are fairly normal amongst plicate snowdrops in my experience.
