The beauty of snowdrops
IT’S not hard to see why collectors are so passionate about snowdrops. From a distance you can see swathes of tiny white flowers nodding in the breeze. Look closer, though, and you’ll notice fascinating differences, from subtle ones like the tiny green marks on the inner petals, to bigger differences in the number of petals, colour of markings and petal shape.
Snowdrops are hardy, reliable and resilient. They will push through frozen ground and flower away through hail, rain and wind, bringing hopes of spring in the midst of winter.
