Galanthus ‘Magnet’
Galanthus 'Magnet' has long outer petals surrounding inner petals marked with an inverted v-shaped green spot.
Galanthus ‘Magnet’ is a popular heirloom cultivar with long outer petals surrounding inner petals marked with an inverted v-shaped green spot. Flowers hang from long, thin pedicels and shake beautifully in the breeze. Snowdrops are a harbinger of spring that bloom in late winter, often breaking through the snow. Their pendulous pure white flowers often have green markings, the small subtleties of which along with the variation in petal shapes beguile many gardeners who, having fallen down the rabbit hole, are known as galanthophiles. Beware! You could be next.
