Why We Love It
Galanthus ‘Flore Pleno’ is a timeless favourite for its ability to flower in the coldest months, often pushing through frozen ground and snow. Its elegant double blooms carry a gentle fragrance and add intricate beauty to the winter garden, with green markings on the inner petals that give extra depth and charm.
Perfect for naturalising in grass, tucking beneath deciduous trees, or planting in drifts through borders, these snowdrops thrive in groups where they can spread year after year. Their early flowers provide much-needed nectar for pollinators, making them as beneficial as they are beautiful.
