Galanthus ” Christmas wish ” Niv Ex J.Ruksans

A rare member of the Caucasian species complex, this has two narrow, bright green leaves below a small hanging white flower in January. The tips of the inner segments are each marked in green Despite recent ideas about these inter-related Caucasian species complex, I do not think that the last word has yet been said, nor sufficient research undertaken to accurately rename these Russian snowdrops.Whatever the outcome of classification studies, this remains a distinct and different species, arguably one of the best of the group. From the gardener’s point of view, the fact that it is readily grown and flowered without making too many rice-grain offsets, marks it out as desirable.Raised from material traceable to Vladikavkaz in the Caucasus Mountains.

Please note some of the snowdrops are in short supply, to avoid disappointment You are advised to contact us to get an update before ordering on line.
