The Spring Snowflake (L. vernum) blooms as early as February or March,
and the Summer Snowflake (L. aestivum) comes into flower in May and
June. They closely resemble the Snowdrop, but are much larger than that
well-known spring favourite. The bulbs are perfectly hardy, and will
grow in any garden soil. Plant in clumps three inches deep, any time
from the end of September until the middle of November.
