Organic Leucojum aestivum ‘Gravetye Giant’

This is a particularly lovely and delicate flower, bearing dark green grassy leaves and dangling white bell flowers with green markings. They somewhat resemble snowdrops or could be compared to a giant version of lily of the valley. Leucojum aestivum is easy to grow and naturalises well. As it multiplies freely in most gardens you can look forward to blooms every spring. Lovely to grow in borders or beds, rock gardens, under trees and it is an ideal choice for bog gardens and pond-side planting.
