Leucojum aestivum 'Gravetye Giant'
summer snowflake bulbs
Similar in looks to the much-loved snowdrop, but larger in stature and flowering a couple of months later, this elegant plant produces large white bell-shaped flowers, each with green tips to the pointed petals. An AGM holder, it's easy to grow and will reliably put on a great display.
