Galanthus Mt Everest Rudbeckia edged with a thin purpleGalanthus 'Mt. Everest' is truly an amazing introduction in an already crowded field of snowdrops. This Galanthus elwesii hybrid (possibly with Galanthus plicatus), appeared as a seedling for Holland's Kwekerij De Schullhorn. For us, it emerges in late January with wide glaucous leaves that serve as an ample background for the very large (for a galanthus) white flowers. This is a fast multiplying selection, so it makes a superb garden specimen.
