Despite its wet origins

(aka: Colocasia 'Puckered Up') Colocasia esculenta 'Black Ripple' is a relatively new introduction from Kentucky's Brian Williams

Galanthus Mt Everest Polygonella pinkish-purpleGalanthus 'Mt. Everest' is truly an amazing introduction in an already crowded field of snowdrops. This Galanthus elwesii hybrid (possibly with Galanthus plicatus), appeared as a seedling for Holland's Kwekerij De Schullhorn. For us, it emerges in late January with wide glaucous leaves that serve as an ample background for the very large (for a galanthus) white flowers. This is a fast multiplying selection, so it makes a superb garden specimen.
