Mine have all come up, (planted in the green) they spread quite well but they are in the wrong place. I'm thinking of moving them but will probably wait until they have finished flowering. Do they move OK?
Ive recently moved from n.yorkshire where my garden had huge clumps, so dug them up when they were finished last spring, planted them deep in a pot and replanted them, in my new garden last autumn, I am now enjoying the, poking their heads up through the snow ???? So yes, they replant well if you dig them up when when they have just finished flowering
You may get fined for digging up wild snowdrops. All mine came from Eurobulbs except the "Colossus" ones which i bought one bulb growing in a pot from Colesbourne Park when they were £10 a bulb. Now i have about 50 and they still cost £5 a bulb. Snowdrops do not like to be dried out in the summer . They do well at the base of a slope.
Hi guys I put some snowdrop bulbs in my front south facing lawn last year and nothing is appearing yet I live in the north east of England am I been impationt any help would be great
I'm in the Se with clay soil. Have tried bulbs with no success. Mentioned this in passing to my friendly local butcher who gave me a bunch of snowdrops , in the green, and they are flourishing nicely. I am now known by the butcher as snowdrop girl! Have a look around your local neighbour hood and I'm sure there green fingered friend will be pleased to help
100 snowdrops in the green for £9 is about the retail price, cheaper wholesale. my "Colossus" cost £10 for one bulb a few years ago. one clump now has about 50 in it and some have selfseeded. This is a very early variety and very tall about 20inches with large fragrant flowers. Here is the original yesterday.

They move well Yvie. They need splitting up every few years, When they get congested they start pushing up out of the ground and stop flowering.
In the sticks near Peterborough
