Notes
'Viridapice' common snowdrop (Galanthus nivalis 'Viridapice') is a bulb for borders, rock gardens, and winter interest. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average to wet, loamy or clay soil. It forms a clumping patch and blooms in winter and spring, and bees visit the flowers. It sits low on the menu for deer. Van Tubergen bred it.
Pairs well with Carlton daffodil, Sedge, and Common snowberry.
