Snowflake

Snowflakes are among the first harbingers of spring, but they can bring joy to your garden for much longer. These low-maintenance bulbs grow naturally in damp forests and along stream banks, so they will look their best in similar conditions in your garden as well. They are perfect for planting under deciduous trees or shrubs, where they will gradually spread into larger clumps on their own. In addition to the well-known spring classic that blooms as the snow melts, you will also find taller summer varieties in our shop. These bloom a little later and, thanks to their longer stems, also stand out beautifully in containers—you just need to make sure their substrate doesn't dry out. Overall, they are very easy to grow. Simply plant the bulbs in the autumn into soil that is well-draining but moisture-retentive. Once you find the right spot for your snowflakes, you won't need to worry about them at all, and each year they will delight you with an even richer display of white bells.

Summer Snowflake Gravetye Giant, Loukykvět

Leucojum aestivum

The summer snowflake is a wild perennial native to Western, Central, and Southern Europe. It is much taller than the spring snowflake and blooms later. Its flowers are more slender, and the leaves remain green for a long time. It is also suitable for planting in containers and pots, provided the soil does not dry out. It combines beautifully with bleeding hearts, for example.

Spring Snowflake, Loukykvět

Leucojum vernum

The spring snowflake is a native woodland perennial. It grows naturally in moist mixed and floodplain forests and is a protected species. It thrives in the moist environment of stream and river banks. In such settings, it spreads well on its own into large colonies. The leaves appear together with the flowers, and the plants die back relatively soon after finishing blooming. The drooping bell-shaped flowers grow singly, or rarely in pairs. It propagates best by dividing clumps immediately after flowering.
