Talkback: Snowdrop season

  • I had a small clump of snowdrops planted last year by a hedge, which were in bloom last week but then something ate the flowers - anybody know what might be please?
  • I'm on a mission to encourage other lovers of our wonderful snowdrops to keep dividing clumps whenever you have time. I started with a small clump of the very hardy and worthwhile double snowdrop and I cannot believe how it has covered my Chilterns woodland garden. Each year I find it hard to believe how prolific each clump becomes after being divided - so I just keep doing it.
  • I agree Leigh. Keep splitting the clumps. The best time to do it will be in a few weeks time when they have finished flowering but before they disappear over the summer.
  • Does anyone know why my snowdrops do not flower. The green leaves come up most years and on one rare occasion there were a few tiny flowers, but for the last few years - no flowers? What can I do
  • I'm the same have quite a few clumps that do not seem to want to flower, such a shame.
  • I planted my first snowdrops last autumn. They finally appeared about 2 weeks ago, unfortunatley just the green leaves and 1 very sad little snowdrop. I am so dissappointed, anyone have any ideas why?
  • Gill, it would definitely be worth digging them up (sometime within the next few weeks), dividing the clumps and replanting.
