« on: September 13, 2015, 02:13:28 PM »
Yesterday I found the first bud of Gal. peshmenii.
Very early this year!

My first snowdrop of the autumn season is flowering:

A whole white reginae-olgae called 'Blanc De Chine'

Ingrid and Emma have been turning my head with some greens ( it's their fault  for enthusing over them, nothing to do with me  ::) ) but I really do love the pure whites and poculiforms.

LOL...so we will see Maggi in the footage covering the Myddelton queue in 2016! Very good. And if one must be in the queue at 7:00am, at what time do the gates open?  ;D Rick

Likens to a rock concert ticket queue from the last century. Thanks, Ingrid. I went out to see if my Galanthus reginae-olgae are showing up yet, and nothing to report quite yet. Rick

Develping an appreciation is not the same as standing about the middle of Englandshire at 7 am on a February morning, Ingrid.  Not the same at all!!
