Greater Snowdrop In The Green Bulbs – JB2010

Greater Snowdrop In The Green Bulbs – pre-grown with green shoots for early spring elegance. Larger, pure white blooms ideal for woodland gardens, shaded borders, meadows, and naturalised areas.

Add early spring charm to your garden with Greater Snowdrop (Galanthus elwesii) In The Green Bulbs (100-Pack). These pre-planted bulbs arrive “in the green,” with established shoots for quicker growth and reliable flowering in late winter to early spring. Greater Snowdrop is a larger variety of the classic snowdrop, producing elegant, pure white, bell-shaped flowers that herald the arrival of spring.

Perfect for woodland gardens, shaded borders, grassy meadows, or naturalised areas, Greater Snowdrop thrives in moist, well-drained soils with partial shade. Once planted, these hardy bulbs return year after year, spreading naturally to form a beautiful, low-maintenance carpet of early-season blooms. Their flowers also support early pollinators, providing an important nectar source during the colder months.

  • Plant immediately for best results; bulbs arrive pre-grown with green shoots.
  • Choose well-drained soil in partial shade to full shade.
  • Plant bulbs at a depth of 5–7 cm and spacing of 5–10 cm.
  • Water lightly after planting if soil is dry.
  • Allow foliage to die back naturally to nourish bulbs for future blooms.
  • Ideal for naturalising woodland areas, borders, meadows, or under trees.
  • Low-maintenance; bulbs will reliably return and gradually spread over time.
