My snowdrops are being blown horizontal by the gale across our adjoining airfield ( that is to say, it's not my airfield) . Their petals are streaming in the wind like Piglet's ears.

How would I treat it? It's now in the bin. It takes banned fungicides to treat it. Martin listed them earlier this week.

The postings are fast and furious and laziness makes me unwilling to look for a quote. Sorry boys and girls

Here are a couple of sister seedlings of the last one I posted (all plicatus X gracilis) and in a similar vein. The first is another good one I'm going to chip and bulk up. The second isn't so good, but fertile so I'm continuing to breed with it and may chip it anyway to see if it improves in different positions (it's under a rhodo right now).

And this is a funny elwesii seedling from 'Kite', which I privately call The Pelican because when the flower's closed up tight in bud it's so long and hangs at such an angle, with its spathe curled above like a head that it somehow makes me thing of a pelican's beak.

I'll try to get a picture of that one when it is closed tight in colder weather, so you can see what I mean about the pelican beak.

Meanwhile, plicatus 'Henham No. 1 which is a reliable plant with me in a well-drained spot, usually very early, a nice flower, and one I'm using for breeding.

Gonnae no dae that Martin. ::) I'm turning more and more green by the day! I think it is white fever and while I know there is no cure for this, I feel that the only way I can cure the symptoms is by increasing my uptake of snowdrop varieties.

Mark, just noticed the change in your signature line. Are you on an 'earner' from Nikon and Canon? ;D
