Just a quick note to let you know I have finished updating my snowdrop web site photo albums. Ther are two mistakes which I will fix tomorrow.

page1 http://www.snowdropinfo.com/galanthus_images.htm
page 2 http://www.snowdropinfo.com/galanthus_images2.htm
page 3 http://www.snowdropinfo.com/galanthus_images3.htm

I'm not too good with words and even if I were I'd still be speechless!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow! I had no idea. Where have you found all these varieties?

just updated page 3 with more images

The pictures are lovely!. Since I see no difference in the leaf types, please explain how each is different. Thanks, Mark.

Lovely photos though :)

all the images in the snowdrop photo albums are viewed by clicking on the thumbnails

When I hear "snowdrops" I automatically think "white". I had no idea there were so many colors and forms. Are the bloom times varied? They must put on a breath-taking display en masse!

they bloom from late October to mid March

I just finished writing this article titled "Snowdrops - what's the fuss?" http://www.snowdropinfo.com/fuss.htm

Very informative!

that is a beautiful page mark, very well put together and with some beautiful photos. I was reading 'Garden News' yesterday and thought of you. SOmeone wrote in saying that they had snowdrops flowering in their new garden in October and was this a new sign of early summer. The 'expert'wrote that yes it was. Having seen your photos of autumn flowering snowdrops I can see that he may be wrong. I think I will send them an email. WOuld you mind if I gave your webpage as a link of valuable info for readers?

yes please. thanks

Mark, check out this weeks edition of Garden news, your webpage address has been printed. See letters page ! ;)

OMG can you tell me who wrote the letter and what did he/she say? thanks for letting me know

Congratulations, Mark! Is this a print or online magazine?

I wrote the letter and they printed it word for word! Ill try to do it for you :)

My pleasure. I write about alot of things and have them published in the letters page, and I was very impressed with your webpage.
