Galanthus from Germany

Opened a box from my Mother~in~Law yesterday, and what did I find inside? A clump of freshly dug Galanthus: a colony of maybe 20 bulbs ~~~ sent from Delve, on the shore of Germany's Eider River (right up by the North Sea).

Some are just in bud, some in bloom, with a healthy flush of foliage. Lovely strong roots.

The flowers appear to be semi~double. I don't own a digital camera yet, so will post my scanned shots as soon as they come back from processing.

I'm on my way now to find a nice spot in my garden for these little guys to settle in.

looking forward to seeing what you got.

Show us some pictures.

This is the clump of Galanthus bulbs sent to me by my mother~in~law in Germany.

The flowers are semi~double.

Your collection's beginning to take off then Adam :)
Can you get a close up of the flowers on this?

I gave these babies a nice little plot in my garden. Until I know what sort they are I've labled them Galanthus Margot, after my mother~in~law (who by the way, has an absolutely genius garden).

I have neither a digital camera, or macro~optics. I'm still undecided about the digital camera I ought to get, as I only want to buy it once.

But..., soon..., ;~)

What a lovely thought - Galanthus Margot!

Can you describe Margot's garden for us please? What sort of plants does she have (other than Galanthus)?
