Galanthus ‘Epiphany’


Synonym: Galanthus elwesii ‘Epiphany’

Description:

An attractive Galanthus elwesii seedling, often described as an early or “Christmas-flowering” snowdrop, though it rarely blooms before middle of January. Elegant single flowers have long, graceful outer segments and rounded inner segments marked with a neat green horseshoe at the sinus. A refined, dependable snowdrop valued more for elegance than extreme earliness.
