This is an extremely rare double Snowdrop that had been thought to have died out, that was until it was mentioned on an online forum and Shropshire galanthophile Eddie Roberts piped up that he still grew it. Small numbers have been listed on eBay since and go for astronomical prices!
The flowers have long thin outer segments, which are apple green over halfway, nice full inner segments and a very long split spathe. A Snowdrop where some patience is needed, as it can be slow to settle in. We have a very limited number available this year.
The website will re-open on the 1st January 2024 for US sales only. There will be no in the green sales for the UK during 2024, we are sorry for any disappointment this may cause. Dismiss
