I posted a photo of a Coltsfoot yesterday, but t his was not the only flower that had appeared in my garden. Also the snowdrops had come out together with a few crocus and the blue â??Glory of the snowâ??. The small snowdrop is such beautiful little flower when you take a closer look. Garden Snowdrop The major benefit of planting Garden Snowdrops is their early arrival. They can show up weeks before crocuses do, and will often poke through a covering of snow. In the South, snowdrops may even bloom all winter long. A snowdrop plant looks like three drops of milk hanging from a stem. This accounts for the Latin name Galanthus which means "milk-white flowers". Since they are small, you probably need to plant a large number to make a dramatic effect.
