" it is worth your while planting them in bulb baskets in the ground so you don't forget they are there and cut through them. Can be a costly mistake. When I plant mine I do this, label it, mark its position on a written plan and then top each basket of snowdrop bulbs with a good handful of white gravel, which seems to deter the local squirrels and reminds me where they are."

That's a really good idea Thank you. I too really love snowdrops hence the name.I have mine in a raised border so they are easier to get up close to. Thanks to DD who supplied me with some replacements last year when mine seemed to disappear when we reorganized the garden,luckily my others finally turned up in a bucket of soil.So now I can start to look for new varieties too. I'll look out for your "Wasp"if I go to any open gardens this year. Linda
