Snowdrops in the green

Plant snowdrops in the green to ensure a flowering display next year.

I can’t tell who was more excited by the arrival of these snowdrops in the green. I bought 100 growing bulbs online, so that I could really realise that plan to have a fringe of white flowers at the bottom of my middle terrace, and a patch under the leylandii hedge, and another in the woodland patch.

Snowdrops do tend to do best when planted in the green, though advice is changing on that. I hope that these will mean that next spring I’m not racing through the first two months of the year, because I’ll have some good flowering clumps of snowdrops.
