Diane, I had to laugh when I read this. 

Among some snowdrop bulbs received here years ago as Galanthus caucasicus
there is one plant which clumps freely and produces the largest snowdrop
foliage I've ever seen. I was looking at it the other day, and every time I
see it I think one of the big Allium such as A. stipitatum has seeded there.


Sadly, the flowers are small and all out of proportion to the foliage.
