Snowdrops at Morlas Plants
Whilst on a school trip in the Cotswolds, Jane Rowlinson became fascinated by snowdrops and vividly remembers "the graveyard of the church we were visiting being a sea of white!". She became even more captivated when she discovered the existence of the pretty rare yellow snowdrop with its distinctive colour and from then on became a full-on galantophile. She started visiting established snowdrops collections and nurseries, Rode Hall in Cheshire, East Lambrook Gardens and Colesbourne Park and gradually added new cultivars to her own collection which now totals about 500 varieties. In late 2017, Jane and her husband decided to move to Oswestry in Shropshire and set up Morlas Plants, named after the brook which runs through their nursery. Yellow snowdrops are, of course, part of her collection which includes G. 'Dryad Gold Ingot', G. 'Treasure Island', G. 'Wendy's Gold', G. 'Bill Clark', and G. 'Blonde Inge' which Jane has planted in her garden. There are also some striking virescent forms such as G. 'Joe Sherman', G. 'Claud Biddulph' and G. 'Amy Doncaster' as well as the unusual G . 'Quatrefoil' with its four petals.
