The joyous appearance of snowdrops during the colder months of the year warms the heart. It seems such a miracle to see these brave little plants blooming in the most dismal weather that people of all ages and backgrounds fall under their spell. "Some Snowdrops" pays homage to the elegance and beauty of snowdrops in all their different forms and demonstrates their worth as wonderful and rewarding garden plants. Nearly 280 poignant photos of 90 different Galanthus cultivars - some of them classics, some of them still rare - focus on their unique character and are complemented by short descriptive texts. In addition, little tables give an indication of price, vigour and blooming time, which spans a period of six months.
