Galanthus nivalis 'Hippolyta' Bulb

Galanthus nivalis 'Hippolyta' is a charming snowdrop cultivar known for its elegant, single white flowers with a distinctive green mark at the tip of each inner petal. This early spring bloomer adds delicate beauty to shaded gardens, woodland edges, and naturalised areas. Growing from small bulbs, it produces nodding flowers above slender, blue-green foliage, creating a graceful display that heralds the end of winter. 'Hippolyta' thrives in moist, well-drained soil and prefers full sun to partial shade, particularly in sheltered spots or under deciduous trees where it benefits from spring light before leaf canopy closure. It naturalises well when left undisturbed, forming attractive clumps that attract early pollinators. Its compact size makes it perfect for rock gardens, borders, and containers, offering a low-maintenance option for gardeners seeking early seasonal interest.
