Nice picture Galanthophile, it looks very unusual. Are they hard to get?

No, I've seen this one listed in a few catalogues such as Paul Christian and Long Acre Plants (both have websites). I've also seen it at flower shows - I think I got mine from Edrom nurseries near Berwick.

Thanks, I found it on Paul Christian's web site. The picture there is not as good as yours and from what I can see the flowers eventually turn out to have a sort of green mop-head appearance. Is this your experience too?

I've found that they retain the distinct green fingers for the life of the flower. Will pay close attention when it come into flower and hopefully post more photos.
