gathered style: snowdrops

More snowdrops! They are nature's kindest, prettiest reminder that winter won't last forever...




These ones are sitting on my kitchen table at the moment, and although I can see snow from where I sit, these little snowdrops from our garden are a happy reminder that spring is waiting around the corner! I grow lots of them in a little woodland area of the garden, they are galanthus elwesii, a tiny bit bigger and bolder than some others and great at naturalising. Buy in the green rather than bulbs. Nothing is a more welcome sight in january and february!

  1. Have ordered some that will not arrive in time to bloom this year, but hopefully next year. Can hardly wait!
