Snowdrop advent calendar day 24 Galanthus 'ophelia' One of the Greatorex hybrids Heyrick Greatorex (D. 1954) was an eccentric individual who took pollen from our native double flore pleno & used it on G. plicatus to create the first deliberate hybrids #Snowdrop #Galanthus #adventcalendar

Good morning Going through some old pictures, I've forgotten what I'm actually looking for, when i came across this absolute delight! I've rebuilt my collection and I'm probably going to rejoin the primula and auricula group but I'm not sure i still have this precious stripe 😍 Have a great day!🌱

Snowdrop advent calendar day 22 Galanthus 'Trymlet' A seedling of the prolific ipoc (inverse poculiform) or pterugiform 'Trym' that revolutionised snowdrop breeding Its outer marks are cresent shaped. It won me the Essex award at an AGS show #galanthus #snowdrop #adventcalendar

Good morning I almost managed to sleep in then my phone started chirping, nice to be wanted i guess 😂 I got a shock with this pic as i hadn't realised how grey I've gone! I know its fashionable to be grey but I think I'm going to dye it again What do you think?

Just had a moment when i was fact checking myself on my richard ayers post where i saw a picture i KNOW i took that was being used by a newspaper I was furious.... right up until i realised they had interviewed me about snowdrops and asked permission 😂😂😂

To me, artist Allen Seaby is best known as the illustrator of the first Ladybird bird books. But I also love his Japanese influenced woodcuts. ‘Snow and Hare’ (c.1923)

TOMORROW IS THE WINTER SOLSTICE AND Y'ALL KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS. It is time for the women (defined broadly) to hunt the Year King through the woods and tear him apart with their bare hands!

Good morning You've made it, this is the shortest day of the year. From here on the days get lighter and longer May this Solstice and turning of the wheel bring you love, peace, and good fortune in the coming year. Let us welcome the returning sun with Hope and Joy. May you never thirst! 🌱💚

Snowdrop advent calendar day 18 Galanthus 'Greenfinch' Originating from the garden of Heyrick Greatorex and found/introduced by Richard Hobbs around 1990 The virescent outer marks give a pinched effect on the outer tepals #galanthus #Snowdrop #adventcalendar

Snowdrop advent calendar day 17 Galanthus 'Anglesey Abbey' Found in the gardens of Anglesey Abbey, its an occasional poculiform nivalis. This means that some years the inner tepals will elongate to the same length as the outer. This isn't guaranteed every year though #Snowdrop #Galanthus 🌱

Today i had a horror story happen to me For the second time in my life a thin black spindly leg descended across my eye, followed by a few more and what appeared in its proximity to be a humongous body So i punched myself in the face Perfectly reasonable reaction to a spider

Snowdrop advent calendar day 11 Galanthus 'Starling' One of my faves, a semi double that has clawed outer petals that are reminiscent of a birds beak. introduced by the late Alan Street of Avon Bulbs, its name refers more to star like markings than birds beaks #snowdrop #Galanthus #adventcalendar

Good morning Happy gotcha day to princess kasumi Rescued off the mean streets of Dagenham she was the perfect companion for poor heartbroken frank, who instantly fell in love with her. She took slightly longer to love him back 😂 Perfect little girl ❤️ Have an awesome day

Snowdrop advent calendar day 9 Galanthus nivalis 'Sibbertoft White' There are 2 possibilities for its origin, first that it came from Sibbertoft manor, home to Lady Beatrix Stanley Second, it came from a small village of the same name I personally think the first more likely

Good morning Hope you all survived storm Bram, we got off easy except i woke up to find the Xmas tree was on the floor, i believe that was storm Lilith though Ptilotus manglesii, commonly known as the pom pom or rose-tipped mulla mulla, native to southwestern Australia Have an excellent day 🌱

Good morning Its likely to be a vile day but improving, take care if you're having to drive in it We will be mostly trying to avoid Callicarpa bodinieri Aka beautyberry, known for its unreal purple berries that remain on the plant for a long time due to their astringent taste Have an awesome day🌱
