Margery Fish the variety "Astrantia major" subsp "involucrata" 'Shaggy' on discovering it in her garden. Margery Fish became an avid galanthophile or snowdrop enthusiast. Her book "A Flower for Every Day" includes an account of the giant snowdrop variety 'S. Arnott', first exhibited at a Royal Horticultural Society exhibition in 1951 and acquired by her from a specialist company. There were said in 2008 still to be 60 different named varieties of "Galanthus nivalis" growing at East Lambrook. Several snowdrop varieties discovered in the "ditch garden" at Lambrook since Margery Fish's death have been named and described. Apart from writing eight books
Luzula nivalis considered L. nivalis to be conspecific with L. arctica, but some of them (Hultén 1968, Böcher et al. 1968) have used the name L. arctica, while the others (Porsild and Cody 1980...) [have used] the correct name L. nivalis.". Elven et al. (2003) also noted that "L. campestris" var. "nivalis" was widely considered to be conspecific with "L. arctica." The current botanical consensus seems to be that lectotypification solves the issue and that "L. arctica" and "L. nivalis" should be regarded as the same species, with the name "L. nivalis" being chosen as this (derived from "L. campestris" var. "nivalis")
