Christmas day Snowdrops

I always check out the best of the Snowdrops in full flower on Christmas day and this year there were two contenders......

The odd Autumn temperatures held G. reginae-olgae back and whilst this would normally be looking like this some six weeks earlier, here it was brightening up[ the alpine house!


Star of the show however was a gift some years ago from Margaret Glyn, Margaret's early G. plicatus :-) It 's always the showstopper in the garden here on Christmas day and deserves better recognition!
