Termed "Snowflakes" by the gardening public, the Leucojum aestivum is by far one the most adaptable bulbs ever offered in the South. This is the bulb that we suggest people try when they aren't sure if they can grow perennial bulbs. During a season when people only consider daffodils to be early spring bloomers, this unusual bloom will steal your heart and captivate your attention. This diminutive bloom was once prized and plentiful in old southern gardens.
Scott Ogden in his book Garden Bulbs for the South says this bulb "positively thrives in the South, and you could hardly ask for a more appealing spring flower." Most spring-blooming bulbs are good only down to zone 8 or good for zones 8-10. The Leucojum aestivum, however, works great in zones 6-10! This fanciful bloom may look delicate, but this bulb is hardy, reliable, and vigorous.
