Galanthus nivalis

Galanthus nivalis (Amaryllidaceae) 033 21

 

As the name suggests, snowdrops (Galanthus nivalis) are one of the first flowers to bloom; depending on region, they appear from January, often while snow still blankets the ground. This low-growing plant tolerates partial shade to full sun. It is toxic to animals and humans, but it offers the benefit of being virtually immune to feeding by deer and other wildlife.
