Our
Projects

Our activity involves spreading information about snowdrops especially to younger students, in middle school and high school.

​

Other initiatives involve efforts of replanting. As many plants are illegally harvested with bulbs and sold for pennies, replanting can help with preservation.

Planting or re-planting

​

Planting snowdrop bulbs (Galanthus spp.) is a straightforward process

​

   Best Time to Replant: The ideal time to replant snowdrop bulbs is after they have finished blooming, usually in late spring (April to May). This allows the foliage to die back naturally and store energy in the bulb for the next season.

​

 

You will need a spade or garden fork, gloves, and a trowel.

​

Select a well-drained site with partial shade to full sun. Snowdrops prefer moist soil but not waterlogged conditions.

Loosen the soil in the new planting area to about 15 cm deep. Plan to space the bulbs about 10–15 cm apart to allow for their growth.

​

Dig holes that are about 5–10 cm deep (2–4 inches). Place the bulbs in the holes with the pointed end facing upwards. Gently cover the bulbs with soil and pat it down lightly to remove air pockets.

After replanting, water the area gently to help settle the soil around the bulbs, but avoid soaking it.

After blooming, allow the leaves to die back naturally, as they help nourish the bulb for the next growing season.
