GALANTHUS (Snowdrops) in growth<br />

We pride ourselves on our collection of Snowdrops. It is well known to be another plant which resents being dried out and,<br />

therefore, prefers to be moved in full growth in the spring. Plant the bulbs, preferably in small clumps, 3” to 4” deep and 3” apart<br />

under ornamental trees and shrubs. In light or sandy soil it is advisable to dig in some good loam; in a very heavy soil dig in a little<br />

compost or leaf mould and sand.<br />

Stocks of special snowdrops are small and quickly sell out so please order early. We will also publish a list of<br />

rarer hybrids on our website in February or you can send us a stamped addressed envelope for the list.<br />
