Introducing the Giant Snowdrop (Galanthus elwesii), a charming and early-blooming bulb that heralds the arrival of spring with its delicate, nodding flowers. This collection features 25 bulbs of Galanthus elwesii, known for its larger size compared to common snowdrops, making it a standout in woodland gardens, under trees, or naturalized in lawns. The robust bulbs produce elegant white blooms with green-tipped inner petals, creating a beautiful carpet of flowers that attract early pollinators.

Blooming from late winter to early spring, Giant Snowdrops thrive in moist, well-drained soil and partial shade. Plant bulbs in autumn approximately 5-8 cm deep and space them 10-15 cm apart. Ensure bulbs receive adequate moisture during the growing season, watering thoroughly after planting and maintaining even soil moisture. Apply a layer of mulch to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Allow the foliage to naturally wither and yellow after flowering before trimming it back. With their resilience and early bloom time, Giant Snowdrops bring a welcome burst of freshness and beauty to gardens each spring.
