Discovered by and named by the late Alan Street in the woods at Avon Bulbs in 2011, ‘Midas’ is very vigorous and very beautiful.  Like ‘Trym’, it’s an inverse poculiform (or pterugiform), and what makes it really special is that the yellow markings appear on the outers as well as the inners.  There’s a lovely story that, a few days after it was found, Avon hosted a lunch for the ‘Immortals’ (people who have had snowdrops named after them) and ‘Midas’ was hidden under a pot so none of those sharp-eyed visitors would spot it!  It was finally released by Avon in 2017.  Quite similar in appearance to \u003ca href=\"\/products\/bitter-lemons\"\u003e‘Bitter Lemons’\u003c\/a\u003e (which was found close by some years later), although both plants flower at different times – ‘Bitter Lemons’ flowers mid to late January here and ‘Midas’ around mid-February.  Both plants are thought to be a naturally occurring cross between \u003cem\u003eG. plicatus\u003c\/em\u003e ‘Trym’ and\u003cem\u003e G. nivalis\u003c\/em\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/products\/blonde-inge\"\u003e‘Blonde Inge’\u003c\/a\u003e.  The plants are certainly not identical.  I find ‘Bitter Lemons’ is taller and has a darker green ovary, giving a greater contrast between the bright yellow outer and inner markings.  For this reason, if I’m completely honest, and I had to choose one of the two, it would be a close call, but my choice would be ‘Bitter Lemons’. That being said, I’m certainly not looking to undersell ‘Midas’ – without question, I wouldn’t, under any circumstances, want to be without it in my collection - it’s just a wonderful plant and really should grow in everyone’s garden.
