Galanthus elwesii aka Giant Snowdrop

Giant Snowdrop is a low-maintenance plant that requires minimal attention, making it an excellent choice for beginners.

Giant Snowdrop should be watered regularly, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings.

Giant Snowdrop loves a well-draining soil. Perlite and vermiculite help with drainage, while coco coir adds organic matter, so a good potting soil mix will have all three. You can improve store-bought soil by adding some perlite to it.

During the cold period, it is common for Giant Snowdrop to go dormant and their growth may slow down, so waterings should be spaced out more during this period.

Giant Snowdrop is poisonous if ingested. We suggest keeping this plant out of reach if you have children, cats, or dogs in the home.

The Giant Snowdrop should be transferred to a new pot once it has increased in size two-fold, or on an annual basis, whichever occurs earlier. Replacing the soil with fresh potting soil containing all the necessary nutrients, is sufficient enough to support the growth of the plant, thus avoiding the need to use fertilizer. It's important to note that plants derive their energy from the sun and not fertilizer.

The Giant Snowdrop is a clumping species, with new growth arising from the soil surrounding the parent plant.
