    This very desirable bulbous perennial, with double white and green flowers, is a great snowdrop for naturalizing in mass in light woodland or semi-shady borders under shrubs. They are native to the woods all over Europe, from the Pyrenees to Ukraine. 'Flore Pleno' is robust and produces irregular double flowers, increasing by offsets.
