Taller than the common snowdrop with larger flowers and is earlier to emerge in spring helping to stretch out the snowdrop season. Large milky white nodding pendent blooms, with an emerald green marking on the inner petals. This award-winning 1874 heirloom is the best variety for naturalizing, and is also well suited to forcing.
Z3–8. 6cm bulbs.

| Snowdrop | bulbs | very early spring | 5-8" |

Frosty white 3-petaled bells with a touch of emerald green on the shorter inner segments. Snowdrops are usually one of the first signs of life emerging from the melting snow, often before the crocuses. Delicate looking, but strong, very hardy and long-lasting, standing up to late snows, frosts and stiff spring winds. Grows particularly well under deciduous trees where exposure to the sun is full in early spring but gradually changes to part shade as the trees leaf out. Tolerates moist soil; a cool spot in a woodland garden is perfect. Can naturalize in border or lawn. Deer and rodent resistant. Grows wild in open woods from the Pyrenees to the Caucasus.
The Royal General Bulbgrowers Association in Holland (Koninklijke Algemeene Vereeniging voor Bloembollencultuur, or KAVB) puts this large group of diverse flowers into a boring catch-all category: Miscellaneous Bulbs. The expensive catalogs call them accent bulbs; some call them minor or dwarf bulbs (even though some of the fritillaries are huge!); Louise Beebe Wilder covered most of them in her 1936 classic Adventures with Hardy Bulbs. Whatever you call them, most are sweet, colorful, and completely welcome in spring.
