Galanthus Nivalis Hippolyta
M5450
Description
Double white blooms marked in green, nodding gently in the late winter chill. Galanthus Nivalis Hippolyta is one of the earliest signs of spring’s return.
Plant in drifts beneath deciduous trees for natural effect. Mulch after planting. Moist, humus-rich soil yields best results.
Care Guide
They prefer moist humus-rich soil.
Plant 8-10cm (3-4”) deep, 8-10cm (3-4”) apart. Plant in clumps 8cm (3”) deep in shade or semi-shade.
Do not disturb until you want to split the clumps, which is best done when the foliage is still lush.
