We have a lot of guest at this topic, but without opinion.

Today was a good spring day. The late flowering galanthus like this weather.
Here is HAGEN HASTDUNICHTGESEH`N. It is not only another virescens. It is a real gem.
I hope Ian ...the Christie kind will have a look to this topic also.
We have not only snow destroyed flowers ;). We have a few fine news also.

Oh yes Hagen, that is a stunning snowdrop, well done.  I'm glad that it did not spoil under the snow.

Thank you, Martin Brian, Natalia.
Here is another galanthus without snow defects: TILL SONNENSCHEIN
It is no virescens, only intermediate.

My life with the green snowdrops is full of ups and downs. Last weekend I lifted some bulbs and a few had small holes on the basal plate. Grubs. My feelings were sour and annoyed. I put the bulb into water over a long night, so the grub had no chance. But the bulb gets a second chance.

Last year I separated such an infected bulb. Here you can see the result: natural twinscaling. (it is one of the better Gnv-types).

I can understand you feeling 'sour'  when you saw the grub Hagen............ >:(

Your green snowdrops are stunning how did you start having so many?
