This snowdrop has a distinct bowl shape caused by the heavily textured outer segments turning under at the tips. As the flower matures the shape intensifies; the claws lengthen so allowing the inner green mark to be seen, even when the flower is not open.

The photos below were taken over a period of two weeks to show the changes in the shape of the flower
