This New Year sunshine gets better by the hour...

A new acquisition this year 'Emerald Hughes' a New Zealand drop has flowered today! It is delightful and large, the AT has earned his Pasta con le Sarde with this beauty.  ;D ;D ;D

I have included a couple of shots as it was preparing to flower. It has wonderful large leaves as a bonus.

Two snowdrops are flowering with me to start the new year off, the first is G. Alpinus, this is the first time I have seen it in flower, it's a lovely little drop. The second is a late flowering G. Peshmenii, though one of the flowers is just starting to go over. Happy new year to the other snowdrop lovers.

Delighted that today's sunshine has delivered one of my eagerly awaited new yellows! Anne Wright's Dryad Gold Sovereign opened today! I have included a few shots of it developing for reference.

Very much true to its name, it is pure gold with a stunning, refined and elegant upright habit.

It easily holds its own with my other yellows, Mother Goose, Elizabeth Harrison and Ecusson D'or.

It is a very rare drop and I know that Anne will be listing another very few in the next week or so. Keep your eyes peeled  :o :o ;D
