Chionodoxa lucilaea Glory of the Snow

Description

One of the earliest flowering of the spring bulbs, Chionodoxa is a superb choice for naturalising and makes a fantastic display when planted in large groups.
Masses of wonderfully attractive, star-shaped flowers in shades of blue with petals that arch backwards appear in swathes in late winter and early spring, often when there is snow on the ground, hence its alternative name, 'Glory of the Snow'. Very versatile and easy to grow. Ideal for rocky borders.
Fully deserving its coveted RHS Award of Garden Merit, you can be sure that this is a proven garden performer, guaranteed to be suitable for UK gardeners at every level of experience. You can therefore plant this in the garden with confidence, for stunning displays for many years to come.
Supplied as 50 bulbs, size 4/5, ready to plant in autumn, growing to a height of 15 cm (6 in) and spread of 10 cm (4 in).
