Aah it is snowing here Paddy, I did an hour or so this morning and I'm still trying to warm up
Given a choice, and we have very few choices for snowdrops here in NZ, I would buy simply because I liked it, not name, rarity or whatever. If it were ridiculously expensive as many snowdrops seem to be, I'd probably buy a dozen or more alpines instead. :)I guess that's the difference between a collector and a gardener.

I'm edging towards doubles.At this point I think I'd like 1st Ailwyn, I love the yellow stamens2nd Flocon de Neige, again for it's stunning interior and for it's name... because I've lived in france so long that it actually does means Snowdrop to me3rd Trump or South Hayes, I love the outer markingsYour turn
