Shownotes Transcript

As we get 2022 well underway, we’ll see a showering of Snowdrops begin to brighten the garden with their brave, early bloom. Not only do they provide a gorgeous lift to grass, but their scent is so delightfully sweet.

You’d be hard pressed to find a greater advocate for the Galanthus than Graham Gough, an old horticultural friend of Sarah’s who joins her on ‘grow, cook, eat, arrange’ to share his love of Snowdrops in an episode laden with helpful tips and hilarious anecdotes in equal measure!

In this episode, discover:

  • The foundation for Graham’s fondness of Snowdrops
  • Which varieties of Galanthus offer the sweetest, strongest scent
  • How to tend to your Galanthus bulbs, and keep Narcissus Fly from preying on them
  • Why you should embrace the joys of picking these pleasant harbingers of spring
