Galanthus Nivalis - snowdrop
The snowdrop (Galanthus nivalis) is the official announcer of the spring! There is no other flower that blooms earlier than snowdrops. Snowdrops start showing up when they feel that winter is over, some even start blooming when there is still snow on the ground. The snowdrop knows that spring is close and shows this in its own style! Snowdrops are “a must have” in your garden! They bloom without any competition in the barest time of the winter and everyone gets cheered up by their appearance. Snowdrops do not need special care, they naturalise on their own in your garden.

Other information
- First loosen the soil well where the flower bulbs will be planted. Then the soil is easier to work with.
- Dig a hole and make sure it is 2 to 3 times as deep as the height of the bulbs.
- For the distance between the bulbs, make sure it is 2 times the diameter of the flower bulbs.
- Plant the flower bulbs in the hole with the pointed side facing up or with the root base facing down.
- Cover the bulbs with soil and water them well.
