A bizarre double spiky with green tips. The flowers are dense and globular unlike the other spikys. It’s unique character is the extra petals growing from the ovary. Very vigorous.
Another superb poculiform plicate from Myddelton House. Earlier, shorter and with greener leaves than 'E A Bowles but with very elegant flowers. Very vigorous. Earlier, shorter, greener leaves and very elegant flowers.Named by me to celebrate and immortalise Bryan.
"This snowdrop is short growing with broad very reflexed leaves of a distinctive soft greyish-green colour. The flower has very neat markings and is quite a rounded shape. Vigorous.
This snowdrop was named by Primrose Warburg because the leaf colour reminded her of celadon porcelain.
"
An exceptionally unusual snowdrop with unique outer petals which look normal in bud but become hugely inflated resembling the classic paper lampshade. Almost the whole of the inner petal is green and the leaves are relatively broad. It is quite a robust-looking plant, however it does not increase quickly. This plant gained an RHS preliminary commendation in 1998. It was found in an old garden in Norfolk and was named for the son of a leading galanthophile who unfortunately died prematurely.
Six, perfect, pure white petals make this one of the most beautiful and desirable of snowdrops. Broad plicate leaves and very vigorous. The first fully poculiform plicate snowdrop to be made available. Found at Myddelton House, Enfield, the home of one of the leading plantsmen of the twentieth century, E. A. Bowles.
The first fully virescent form of subspecies byzantinus. Relatively short, mid season and very vigorous. A must-have plant.
A somewhat muddled byzantinus mark which may indicate a hybrid origin. Exceptionally vigorous variety which makes a good garden plant,.
A superb byzantinus which is early and has huge flowers. The basal mark is enormously variable and can be anything from absent to a solid band. Often two flowers per bulb. Stands out amongst the crowd. From Richard, and named by me for him.
