More Snowdrops!

More Snowdrops!
I couldn't resist taking a photo of these pretty snowdrops hanging their heads. It was a very short walk down Love Lane yesterday, due to the cold biting wind!

I hope this is a sign that spring is on the way, because it's freezing here in Scotland. LOL. Cheers, Joe

It's the same here, Rosa. The place is covered in snow, and it's very cold.

Dear Rosalyn,
It is not a Snowdrop (Galanthus) - dt.: Schneeglöckchen
- it is a Frühlings-Knotenblume (Leucojum vernum), auch Märzenbecher, - Engl.: > Spring snowflake ( Leucojum vernum ).
The snowdrop is total white and it has 3 petals
The Snowflake has 5 petals with a green point

warm greetings aNNa*

Rosalyn Hilborne club has replied to aNNa schramm club
Hi Anna, they are double snowdrops, Galanthus Nivalis Flore Pleno.
None of the outer petals have the green dot.
Kind regards, Rosa.

aNNa schramm club has replied to Rosalyn Hilborne club
Oh YES Rosalyn* your right !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was too quick with my judgment ....; - ((
I only saw the green dots ...
but yes they are inside and not on the outside of the 5 petals
so vergive me ----- ;-))))
Have a nice day and stay well

Two wonderful images Rosa..............they're real beauties...........and with more flower heads to come by the look of them.

You've captured them perfectly against the darker backgrounds..!!

Bitterly cold here yesterday and today as well. I broke the ice in our birdbath this morning and was frozen again within the hour! We had a walk round the block late afternoon yesterday but decided against it today! We'll probably venture out tomorrow though :-)

Rosalyn Hilborne club has replied to Keith Burton club
Thank you very much Keith. There are so many all along the lane, mostly the single, more delicate looking snowdrops. They are standing up to the cold weather better than me!

Yes very cold here as well Keith, with a bitter wind and a few light snow flurries. You look after your birds well. I'm not surprised that it soon froze again though! I am hoping for a longer walk tomorrow. We just have to be brave and wrap up very warm ;-))

We went out to Southsea today to visit a friend who is in a support "bubble" with us (she has learning difficulties, so we try and see her at least weekly, even though it means a 20 min drive). I took a few photos as well...........nothing spectacular, but nice to do anyway. It was absolutely freezing and even with gloves I soon couldn't feel my fingers! It's forecast to be even colder tomorrow so I doubt we'll go out again! Got a text from the Doctor's Surgery though to say Jackie and I will be called forward soon for our vaccinations.....yay!

Rosalyn Hilborne club has replied to Keith Burton club
There was a bitter wind Keith, which we don't have today thankfully. That is good news for you and Jackie. I drove through the RNAS at Yeovilton yesterday, on my way to my dental appointment and they had a vaccination hub there. It's the furthest I have driven since before Christmas :)

Beautiful images. It's lovely seeing them from above. I especially like the main one with all the veining on the petals. You've taken it from a lovely angle too.

A beautiful capture Rosalyn it looks nice when you look out but that wind, you don't collect expensive snowdrops with different markings ??

Rosalyn Hilborne club has replied to Peter Castell club
I haven't been outside yet today Peter, but I can see the wind has dropped, thank goodness. These pretty snowdrops were along a fairly newly laid hedgerow down the lane. They looked so pretty. Keep warm and have a good day.

These are double snowdrops, Galanthus nivalis Flore Pleno. They always hang their heads in my garden. Any green shoots in our garden are looking very sad at the moment. Hopefully when the 'warmer' spell arrives all will be well.

Thank you very much for your great comments Günter. I love to see the first snowdrops of the year, and then the bluebells follow shortly afterwards and we are in springtime again ;-))

Best wishes & a good new week, Rosa.
