An exceptional dwarf snowdrop with flowers that change color from green in winter to white in spring.

Hippolyta is an exceptional dwarf snowdrop with strap-shaped leaves and solitary, nodding flowers with long white outer bracts that have green-tinged tips and smaller inner petals heavily marked with green "hearts". The flowers change color from green in winter to white in spring.

This is a low maintenance plant good for a multitude of uses. It's especially good for erosion control on banks and slopes. It works well as edging and borders, as an underplanting for roses and shrubs, and as a container plant.

With Wayside's bulbs, growing gorgeous flowers is as easy as Dig, Drop, Done.

Dig:

The first thing you want to do is pick your spot and dig the hole for your bulbs. Avoid places with standing water, as this could cause bulb rot. A good rule of thumb when planting is to dig down 3 times the height of the bulb, but you should follow the specific instructions for your bulb. Make sure to space out your bulbs to give your plants the right amount of room to grow later.

Drop:

Now put your bulbs in the ground, pointy side up. For fall planting, be sure to get the bulbs in before the first frost. For spring planting, the time varies by plant. Afterwards, cover the bulbs with soil and then water them in. This helps wake the bulbs up from dormancy and get them growing again.

Now you're Done!

Just sit back and wait, and in the spring your bulbs will sprout up and reward you with their beautiful blooms throughout the season. Growing flowers from Wayside bulbs really is that easy!
