Galanthus ‘Marlie Raphael’ is an eye-catching snowdrop with large, elegant flowers. Vicky takes advantage of the flower’s curiosity – amazing green splash-like marks on the outer petals, providing a canopy over an almost full green mark on the inner segments, which sometimes fuse together to form a heart shape. With petals stylised to take full advantage of these precious hearts and typical elwesii leaves pummelled and pulled into a geometric design, a modern vision of this sort-after hybrid is achieved.
