Galanthus plicatus ‘Colossus’ is a remarkable, giant snowdrop, standing out with its impressive height (26cm), large flowers, and striking foliage. Flowering earlier than many varieties (January to February), this vigorous and fast-multiplying selection quickly forms stunning drifts.
The broad, plicate (folded) leaves and large, boldly-marked white flowers make Colossus a prized choice for collectors and gardeners alike. Plant in drifts under deciduous trees, in shaded borders, or naturalise in grass for a breath-taking winter display. A must-have for galanthophiles, this robust, early-flowering snowdrop thrives in moist but well-drained soil in sun or partial shade.
