Of all the bulbs purchased this year, these are the least satisfying, but the quality is not at issue. The foliage is lush and drooping for a small flower, the effect is disappointing to my taste. I will opt for snowdrops next year.

They have pretty white flowers in drooping bells. Leucojum aestivum is the botanical species, a very prolific variety.
