A tiny seedling now flowering for the first time, with nivalis 'Virescens' blood in it, showing as green marks on the outers.

Very sweet Martin :)

Just a impression where i was walking today and again with permission of course! The owner said to me you are not going home without taking any do you! I stayed there after my searching, for a few hours with some of his friends  drinking coffee and explaining what the difference between all the snowdrops is because they did not see any difference at all!
They invited me to come back next year, there are so many you can spend a whole day over there :o
