Snowdrop Species


The Snowdrops are now in full flower and although later than usual I did find two Snowdrop species in a local churchyard. Along with the common Galathus nivalis I found G.elwesii and the rarer G.woronowii. This was the culmination of lots of churchyard visits in the Waveney Valley and it was this churchyard near Beccles that produced the goods. This photograph shows the green inner sepals of G. elwesii.
