Notes
'Bertram Anderson' snowdrop (Galanthus 'Bertram Anderson') is a bulb for woodland gardens, naturalizing, and early color. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes part sun to full shade. The large white flowers have thick, rounded outer petals and inner petals marked with a deep green V. Blooms often break through the snow in late winter. The foliage is bluish green, and the clumps multiply well in good conditions.
Pairs well with Snake Eyes hosta, Spotted dead nettle, and Artist tulip.
