Leucojum aestivum 'Gravetye Giant'
- Good for Cutting
- Perfect for Pots
- Loved by Pollinators
- Naturalises
- Scented
A much underestimated totally perennial bulb for naturalising in grass, placing at the base of trees and at the front of a soft-coloured border
It's also excellent as a perennial spring container plant and early season cut flower. More of us should grow snowflakes.
On occasion we may need to send you an alternative variety to the one shown, which will be selected by our growing team to ensure its suitability. It will be of equal or greater value to the original. Please contact our customer service team if there are any problems.
