The snowdrop and primrose our woodlands adorn, And violets bathe in the wet o’ the morn.

Robert Burns (1759-1796) – Scottish Poet and lyricist


Snowdrops - Galanthus (from Ancient Greek γάλα, (gála, "milk") + ἄνθος (ánthos, "flower")), or snowdrop, is a small genus of approximately 20 species of bulbous perennial herbaceous plants in the family Amaryllidaceae. The plants have two linear leaves and a single small white drooping bell-shaped flower with six petal-like (petaloid) tepals in two circles (whorls). The smaller inner petals have green markings. Planting should start from August and continue to through the Autumn. If, like us, you need that lift and the promise of spring then these are the bulbs for you.

I wonder if the sap is stirring yet,

If wintry birds are dreaming of a mate,      

 If frozen snowdrops feel as yet the sun

And crocus fires are kindling one by one:

Sing robin, sing:

I still am sore in doubt concerning Spring

Christina Rossetti  –  from ‘ The First Spring Day’ (1830-1894) – Poet
