Possibly one of the vernus forms.

In defense of the gc guy, my suppliers and I have often genteel discussions about things like the pink rain lilies coming out yellow, or the 'Grand Soleil d'Or' Narcissus turning out to be double white. :/

Thanks Owd. species is good.

not in this case tug: all he could say was iris, snowdrop, crocus daff grass etc. clearly just minding the till etc. couldn't even add up in his head. he undercharged me by £5 and when I pointed that out he re calculated and then over charged by £10. we finally got it right :)

Could well be the one sold as Lady Killer.

Sigh! Ah, well...some nurseries have experts on sales, but for the others, caveat emptor!

non of the pots have labels in them. the only signs tend to be the prices eg red pots £2, green pots £3 etc. or prims £1.50 for 6 that sort of thing.

cant complain as they are really cheap.

The plants may be cheap, but wait till you get the bill from GOY members for their time and expertise - lol

Naah! Sbg knows that we do this for fun! Those are nice prices, though!

I've done my fare share of identifying plants over the years Andrew;o) but I am very grateful for the input.
