Galanthus ‘Cordelia’ I cheated a bit by including this one, because I am only 90% certain this is the correct name, as part of the label (taken on a separate photo) was obscured. But it was so intriguing I wanted to include it. This is a Greatorex double. According to this website, Heyrick Greatorex “used pollen from nivalis flore pleno and crossed it with Galanthus plicatus to produce a range of hybrid doubles. The resulting plants were tall, vigorous and robust and with their large, regular and neat flowers caused something of a sensation.” He named them all after female characters in Shakespeare.
When dealing with frost it is always best to be paranoid. In the spring never think it is too late for one more frost to come. And in the fall never think it too early.
