{"product_id":"col-add-flo-tro-sno","title":"Galanthus nivalis (Snowdrops) – Winter Flowering Bulbs in a Trough (Pre-Planted Floral Trough)","description":"\u003cp\u003eSnowdrops are one of the first flowers of the year, and this pre-planted floral trough brings their nodding white blooms to a doorstep, patio or garden corner from mid-winter into early spring. The common snowdrop, Galanthus nivalis, is already growing in the trough and arrives ready to display, so there is no planting to do.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSnowdrops flower through frost and cold, often from January, with narrow grey-green strap-like leaves. They are fully hardy and low maintenance, which suits UK winters and gardeners of every experience level. Their early flowers give bees and other pollinators food when little else is out.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePlace the trough in partial shade, in a cool, moist but well-drained spot. Water moderately while the plants are growing, avoid waterlogging, and ease off once the foliage has died back. After flowering, let the leaves die back naturally to feed the bulbs for next year. Snowdrops can later be planted out in the garden, ideally 'in the green' just after flowering, where they will spread gently into drifts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCultural Information\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCommon Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Snowdrop, Common Snowdrop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBotanical Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Galanthus spp.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFully Grown Height and Spread:\u003c\/strong\u003e Approx. 7-15cm tall and 5-8cm wide (variety dependent)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrowth Habit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Upright, clump-forming bulb\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePerfect For:\u003c\/strong\u003e Woodland gardens, borders, rockeries, containers and underplanting deciduous trees and shrubs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFoliage:\u003c\/strong\u003e Narrow, strap-like, grey-green leaves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlowering Time:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mid-winter to early spring (January to March)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlower Colour:\u003c\/strong\u003e White\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlanting Position:\u003c\/strong\u003e Partial shade, tolerates full sun\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSoil Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Well-drained, humus-rich, moist soil or compost\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardiness:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fully hardy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaintenance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Low\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeasonal Interest:\u003c\/strong\u003e Winter and spring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hardy bulb\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Verdant Living","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68098303295708,"sku":"COL-ADD-FLO-TRO-SNO","price":29.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0646\/2455\/8300\/files\/file_078e68ba-a34e-4cd9-98a6-dc92364117a2.jpg?v=1794092723","url":"https:\/\/www.verdant-living.co.uk\/products\/col-add-flo-tro-sno","provider":"Verdant Living","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
