Description
Galanthus elwesii, commonly called giant snowdrop, has larger flowers, leaves and size than the similar common snowdrop (G. nivalis). Snowdrops are the earliest of all bulbs. They open their white, winged flowers before anyone dares whisper “spring”, usually in February – March.
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.
Deer and Rodent Proof. Will grow under Walnut trees.
