S. Arnott

The trump card in the Giant Snowdrop Company’s lists of the 1950s, but still a snowdrop that can infect the innocent with Galanthomania, such is its magic and appeal. Believed to have originated in Sam Arnott's garden in Carsethorn, UK. Its characteristics are that it is a tall mid-season flowering snowdrop with thick petals, is very white, and has handsomely proportioned flowers, scented (honey) as well as being vigorous to increase (although as a triploid it never sets seed). A superlative hybrid snowdrop. Mid season.
