Snowdrop Identification Please

DWS

Hi, I have just purchased a some Snowdrops (5 plants in a pot) but do not know which variety they are? They are unlike any snowdrop I have seen before.  The flowers have the usual three white petals but the inner segments have small green Dots on them, rather than the usual inverted U or V.  The leaves are dark green and glossy and quite wide. The Stems are 20/22cm high.  Can anyone help with the identification of the variety please?

I don't think there are any galanthophiles on the site DWS but this pdf will give you somewhere to start:

Also have a look through here to see if you can find something close:

Note that the site above is very fpr me slow and I have to click 'skip' whenever it appears.

A common variety is Galanthus nivalis 'Atkinsii'... looks something like yours but you should try and photograph it from underneath..

I think mine are 'flore pleno'.. but I'm not sure, I didn't keep the labels.. I have one or two others as well, so I'm not much help... you would need an expert to distinguish most of them I think..






..oh yeah.. check those links from Bob The Gardener too...

Thanks Marlorena, your flowers are Doubles, mine are Three Petal Singles.  I'm still searching for a match.
