Happy 2021 to all our friends and fellow galanthophiles. We are so lucky we can still get out and explore the snowdrops around Shaftesbury #thehighspotofdorset and in the places where we live. There’s no need to stay socially distanced from the snowdrops. Did you know that some smell of honey?Keep well. ... See MoreSee Less

It’s June 1st and almost all the snowdrops in my garden have finished their growing for this year. If like me you’ve still got a few green leaves poking through it’s safe to cut these off now and not damage your bulbs for next year’s flowers. I’ve lifted some bulbs this year to plant elsewhere over the coming months. These are stored in dry earth or sand in the cool of our shady garden shed. The Heritage Collection for Shaftesbury will need attention over the summer. Please email us on info@shaftesburysnowdrops.org if you can spare a couple of hours to help our one day. ...

From our archives, day 14: Easter Sunday. The end of abstinence from chocolate for many. We’ve never found a chocolate snowdrop but did indulge in a wild goose chase in Shaftesbury one February with a daily prize of a chocolate one for spotting all the snowdrops. We also hunted for a silver snowdrop made by local artisan silversmith Jes Holt. Lucky lady who won it. Jes makes earrings too. We hope to have some for sale next February. As you can see we’ve even had a snowdrop cake (we’ve had a few) made a by a talented local sugar-crafter. Our snowdrops come in many guises through our local ‘Snowdrops in Art’ exhibition. Check back with us again to see some of the wonderful art that has grown from our legacy. ... See MoreSee Less

From our archives: Day 12 - The two common snowdrops growing on Stoney Path in Shaftesbury #TheHighPointOfDorset. The common single form is Galanthus nivalis (Milkflower of the snow) and the double is Galanthus nivalis ‘Flore Pleno’. The last picture is of a local, Les dangly, ‘Spiky double’ snowdrop we dug (with the landowners permission) and transplanted in Shaftesbury. It is from oddities like our ‘Spiky’ that many of the interesting and unusual snowdrops are developed. There are an astonishing 2500+ named snowdrops now available. ... See MoreSee Less

From our archives, day 11: Snowdrops in June? We began cultivating snowdrops in the raised beds at Shaftesbury Home Grown each year. These healthy, newly dormant bulbs were then lifted in time for our annual Father’s Day planting of snowdrops. The last of these snowdrops are waiting to be harvested for another day’s planting. If you’d like to plant snowdrops for your father (or any man you’d like to celebrate) follow our Facebook feed or watch our website for details. We hope we’ll all be well and able to enjoy this this June. ... See MoreSee Less

From our archives, day 10: Each year Snowdrop volunteers work together to create and exhibition of rare and unusual snowdrops as a part of the town’s cultural legacy. The names are themselves an unusual mix from ‘Little Ben’ and ‘Mrs Thompson’ to ‘Three Ships’ (for Countryfile fans, we don’t have ‘Johns Y Fronts’) We have over 150 varieties in the heritage collection and have always welcomed new volunteers to help make this exhibition possible. ...
