Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Galanthus woronowii is the last of the snowdrops to flower, extending the blooming season of these little beauties. The flowers produce tiny amounts of yellow pollen which can be seen glowing through the translucent petals where they attach to the stem like tiny botanical lanterns. The outer petals on woronowii are also extra full and rounded.

A lovely and distinctive snowdrop with very broad, glossy green foliage. While most snowdrops like cool fairly moist conditions, this one is native to much drier, hotter regions from Turkey into Southern Russia, and is the best galanthus for areas like the plains states where other species often fail to thrive.
