Plicatus Sabine, a new snowdrop from Woodchippings. The first flowers normally appear around Christmas. I like the inner markings a lot !

 Pleasing overall shape  I think.  Looks a flower of some substance.

Is there a difference between 'Warham' and 'Washfield Warham'? If so, does anyone have conclusive photos of the two?

Maybe Mark but this one does reliably flower around Xmas into January each year which in my humble opinion makes it a worthy garden plant and it is a good doer so worthy of a name even if it isn't the latest must have drop

 I agree, Dean - timing and  robust  character are  key ingredients for a  quality 'drop and so why not name ?
After all, why should only "those and such as those"  be allowed to name?

Thank goodness for that  -  I was thinking it  hadn't got the right leaves and I was losing the place!
