I found this little snowdrop in bloom this morning - I think it might be Galanthus woronowii
cheers

The leaves of G. woronowii are much broader and bright, glossy green, Fermi. This has a look of G. nivalis or G. reginae olgae (vernalis?) to me.

Thanks, Matt,
the "obvious" choice isn't that obvious here as we struggle to keep it going!
But there were some G nivalis planted in this bed - just not where this one turned up,
