I can’t leave out the Snowdrops, picked up a few new ones this week at the RHS Early Spring Plant Fair. Galanthus ‘Spindlestone Surprise’ - I’ve already got some yellows, but couldn’t resist this one. It’s quite a short one, not very tall at all. #galanthus #galanthusspindlestonesurprise #snowdrop
Hey Leigh, sorry for only just coming back. Yeah, they can be a bit expensive. You are likely to pay something around £15-25 for a yellow one, which will be either Wendy’s Gold, Primrose Warburg or Spindlestone Surprise. There is another called Blond Inge that I have but it’s only yellow markings with a green ovary. I’ll paste a few web links below that I’ve used before. You normally need to start looking at them just before Xmas or new year time when the online shops open their snowdrop stocks.
They will sell out quick so need to keep an eye on them. Alternatively, many plant fairs in Jan/Feb will sell Snowdrops too. I go to the London one at the RHS every year and you usually get a good choice available @Puddings_pies

Beautiful
Any suggestion on where to source yellow ones? They can be quite expensive to buy. I like Wendy's Gold.
Beautiful 😍😍
