Snowdrop

Snowdrop

Snowdrop Galanthus nivalis is loved by people of the northern hemisphere as a sign that the cold winter is coming to an end. It is often the first flower to appear in the garden, sometimes emerging when the snow is still on the ground. Snowdrops are native to Europe and Asia and cultivated in North American gardens. The single nodding flowers are white with green markings and the leaves are long and narrow like blades of grass. [CH] {FW}
