Growing at a glance…
Galanthus bulbs prefer humus-rich soil that's well-drained and kept moist, especially in the summer. These blooms do not need pruning. Simply allow them to die back after their growth in early spring, allowing the bulbs to absorb as much energy from the sun as possible. Cut them down to ground level once the foliage is brown and straw-like. Plant bulbs 10cm deep, spaced 5cm apart. Perfect for growing in shaded areas, especially under trees and shrubs.
