Leucojum aestivum 10/12

Elegant, nodding white bells with green tips. Thrives in damp soils and naturalised parkland. A reliable choice for shaded or moisture-retentive sites.

Description

Leucojum aestivum, commonly known as Summer Snowflake, is a resilient and understated spring bulb that performs exceptionally in moisture-rich and partially shaded environments. It produces tall, graceful stems with nodding white flowers, each delicately tipped in green. A must-have for sustainable planting schemes where low maintenance and naturalistic charm are key.

Ideal for civic spaces, woodland margins, stream banks, and less formal areas within larger plantings. Once established, it naturalises beautifully, returning year after year with minimal intervention. Excellent companion to Fritillaria meleagris, Narcissus jonquilla, and Galanthus in damp ground schemes.
