Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Just like “Baby Blue Eyes”, native ‘Snow White’ blooms its heart out in masses of elegant pure white perfect for those with an aversion to spots. I often mix it in with “Baby Blue Eyes” or “Penny Black” for fun & interest. Like the others, it makes a great bulb cover - imagine bright red tulips growing through these! Grows to a nice, compact, 7” tall & 15” wide & is wonderful as edging or in a container (at least 10” is best). An easy-to-grow Spring bloomer - just protect from snails.
