Galanthus elwesii 'Grumpy'

A closeup - I’m convinced it’s Galanthus elwesii ‘Grumpy’ 🙂 #galanthus #snowdrops #galanthuselwesiigrumpy

Seems Galanthus Reginae-Olgae

gorgeous :)

Still waiting for the other flower to open next to it to see if it’s the same or a stowaway - love it though 😀👌🏼 @nessas @kimguy @awomanonabike @gauravsh6 @Squares @rachelbrooks

I’m certain it’s a Galanthus elwesii hybrid @gauravsh6 - I think Galanthus reginae-olgae has foliage more like Galanthus nivalis and it also flowers in autumn time too rather than winter. It also flowers before the foliage comes up I think 👍🏼

It's probably not a true 'Grumpy' - I'm sure it's more refined markings than this so more likely to be a elwesii seedling hybrid of some kind.

I think I have a stowaway in my small clump of Galanthus elwesii, but I’m not complaining! there is a specific cultivar called ‘Grumpy’ (as it looks like a grumpy face) and it’s also elwesii hybrid so I wonder if i got a bulb of it mixed up 🤔 - the other flower hasn’t opened yet so if it’s different I’ll separate the two apart #galanthus #snowdrops

It's very cute, and the name sounds just like I feel lately 😂😁

Love the grumpy snowdrops, saw them at Cambo gardens, and they were very expensive!

Haha, that is very cute indeed! 😍

I know what you mean James, there are some very expensive ones out there. If ‘Grumpy’ is one of them, think I must be quite lucky to find it as a stowaway as this pot was definitely one of the cheaper ones I got. I have to confess that for some of my favourites of mine I’ve paid double digit figures for one bulb 😳🙈🤭 @fisherman - things us gardeners do when your addicted!
