Snowdrops

I know there is a seller of snowdrops in NY State. It is called Temple Nursery.
I have not purchased from him but I know that he has a catalog.
Several years ago, I wrote to someone in the US who, as it turned out, only
sold snowdrops "in the green". For this reason, they couldn't ship to Oregon. I
have always wondered where the idea that snowdrops could only be transplanted
"green" came from. Maybe it is true for certain species, but in reality I have
never known any that would not stand being shipped dry, dormant, and free of
soil. Maybe there are some species that ~are fussy this way?
Anyway, thanks to both of you for the pointer.
Cheers, Louise
