Product description
Galanthus woronowii - Green snowdrop Large Pack
Galanthus woronowii is a robust snowdrop with elegant, nodding white flowers and distinctive broad, glossy, fresh green leaves. It is this attractive foliage that particularly distinguishes the species from the familiar common snowdrop (Galanthus nivalis).
This early spring-flowering bulb grows to approximately 15 cm tall and flowers in February and March. Galanthus woronowii is excellent for naturalising and, in a suitable position, will gradually form increasingly large groups.
An early snowdrop for natural planting
The white flowers appear while much of the garden is still dormant, bringing welcome life and colour to borders and areas beneath deciduous trees and shrubs very early in the year.
