I've only tried growing snowdrops once and they didn't come back the second yr. I guess they got dry. Reading this thread makes me tempted to have another go. They manage well next door, so maybe I got get them to flourish.
@RoseyNose A friend use to propagate snowdrops by cutting up the bulbs. She was always swapping the expensive ones and in return sending some of hers wrapped in damp kitchen roll to various parts of the country.
I have worked as a Gardener for 24 years. My latest garden is a new build garden on heavy clay.
Last year a yellow snowdrop sold for nearly £2000. Bred by Joe at Monksilver. Galanthophiles do get a bit giddy about usual types. Collecting can do that to someone's brain. There are lots of cheap, simple ones to love.

I was lucky enough to be offered work by Ray Cobb many years ago. Sadly due to the distance I was unable to take up the work. He loved snowdrops and had a beautiful garden full of 'treasures'. Galanthus Ray Cobb is one of the best yellows.
