Hello All.  I don't know galanthus and only have one. But it is blooming 
now, here in a Chicago suburb (NW sie) . I brought it from an abandoned 
house north of here about 10 years ago and it has bloomed ever since with no 
care whatsoever in a clayey loam. It has gone through -25° F and survived. 
It is never more than 4" high. Is the size and hardiness a clue to the 
species?
They all look essentially the same to me, except for the size factor. 
(Parading my ignorance). Can anybody offer a reasonable guess as to species. 
I will believe anything you say,  contrary to my usual skepticism.
