i purchased a Galanthus Brin from Cambo Estate, Kingsbarn, Fife - can anyone give me its origin please as I cannot find it in any Snowdrop reference books. Thank you.

Possibly a new cultivar, or a typo (common in retail plant names)? I would contact Cambo to see if they have any further information. There are a lot of Galanthophile web sites out there too which may be worth contacting, for example:

Thank you - I have contacted Cambo today and they will try to find out any info for me. Will keep you posted on the results. Many thanks.

Yes - looked up Avon bulbs - will wait to see what Cambo come up with. Hoping they will respond in the next day or so. I paid for a specialist Galanthus so hoping this is one!!!! Thanks again
It was the mention of Richard Trotter of Brin that caught my eye, maybe one of his?
