Unexpected gift

That is so beautiful and I am so pleased you saw it. I have waited years to see just one flower so pretty as all mine come to nought. I have recently planted some in the green so fingers toes and eyes will be crossed next Spring. Love Sue x

And your poem was great too well done :)))))))))))

Lovely poem and photos.
Well done :o)

Beautiful pictures and a great poem, hope your little one will multiply next year;0)

lovely Gee and lovely poem to, im happy for you and your little snowdrop to :o))

Lovely little treasure to find :)

it is lovely but it is a 'snowflake' or a Leucojum [spelling!] what a lovely little find. I am waiting for mine to open.

It's lovely Gee. Very fresh looking :o)

I think your lonely little snowdrop is beautiful Gee. :o)

its a little gem and good poem to go with it ..i too have just planted some in the green..:o)

Lovely snowdrop and lovely poem too!

And I forgot to say a lovely verse to go with it :o)

Most enjoyable pics and verse some times one alone can mean more than drifts :o)

Sbg's right - it's a Leucojum, but never mind that - I still enjoyed your poem and photos! :-)))

A lovely delightful poem Gee , it dosn't matter if it isn't a Snowrop it's everybit as beautiful ... :o))

Love this blog, and your pics, and you made me smile with your lovely verse, thank you Gee :~))

So clever, Gee, to put lovely verse to stunning pics of this beautiful Spring flower. :-))

oh Gee i am so happy
that you have found
a tiny perfect
little snowdrop
growing in the ground.
it must have made you happy
and was so lovely to see
im sure next year
you will have not one but maybe 3.....

great pics and poem....

So glad you've got your Snowdrop Gee
and very glad you've let us see.
Its nice to learn of your delight
to see it all so pure and white.
So if it seeds and spreads around
instead of one, you'll get a mound....... Here's hoping.
Lovely photos Gee and your poetry is catching!!

Thank you, everyone for your kind comments. Well done, Holly and Mad, for your poetic responses :)

Thanks, too, to SBG and Spritz, for letting me know what it really is - hopefully it will multiply; I like the idea of having a snow 'flake' instead of a 'drop' :)

Gee brilliant poem and your snowdrop is perfect.

LOL - delightful - thank you =))

Pure genius and great pics to boot. We want these as well!

What a lovely verse and the photo`s were magic.

Its Gorgeous Gee & your Little Poem is Brill :)

The poets are jostling for pole position
Who'll win the laureate competition?
Too many good poets on here, we really will have to crown a poet laureate, somewhat in the style of the Eisteddfod. Lovely photos of a lovely flower and good poem and good poetic comments...what more can we want:-))

Lovely flower. I thought leucojums flowered in summer so I went looking and there are two versions "Leucojum Vernum", Spring Snowflake, and Leucojum aestivum, aka Summer Snowflake or Loddon Lily. I'm not being picky but at least one member is expressing an interest in acquiring this plant and latin names are important if you want to ensure you get what you pay for. I wonder whether Santa Claus who delivered your present has upset some other gardener. A Squirrel brought me a beautiful red miniture tulip and took away some of mine. Three years later it reclaimed the gift. LOL

lovely photo`s and verse Gee,don`t know how I missed it............

Just loved your poem Gee and what a little lone beauty you have......

Just found this, clever you loved the poem and the snowdrop that wasnt lol
