Giant Snowdrop 'Woronowii'
Welcome the new year with the cheerful elegance of Galanthus woronowii, the Giant Snowdrop! This variety is a true garden treasure, celebrated for its broad, glossy, bright green leaves that create a lush carpet long before other plants stir. From this foliage emerge delicate, nodding white flowers, each marked with a distinctive green horseshoe on its inner petals. A proud recipient of the RHS Award of Garden Merit, it's a reliable and beautiful choice. Plant them in drifts under trees, along pathways, or in pots with winter aconites and crocuses for a breathtaking early spring display. They naturalise beautifully, promising a bigger and better show each year.
