Summer Snowflake |
Plantae Monocots (Monocotyledons) Asparagales |
| Leucojum aestivum subsp. aestivum | |
| Family: Daffodil family Amaryllidaceae (was Liliaceae) |

View location Bulbs from Broadleigh Gardens. I planted them on a (somewhat dry) mound (having seen the flower in such a location at Kew) - before I knew the garden already had then and also not then knowing their love of damp conditions. More on Leucojum Ena Gatenby (who is building the National Collection of Leucojum) tells me "I have also seen it referred to as Devon Snowflake, St Agnew flower and St George's Violet". |
