Galanthus 'Boge' is a tall, elegant snowdrop with long, pure white outer segments and a neat green inverted 'U' at the tip of the inner segments. It holds its flowers up well on tall scapes, and has a lovely clean, simple look.

It was raised from seed from the village of Boge in northern Albania, which gives it its name, by Paul Barney of Edulis Nursery, who lists it as G. reginae-olgae subsp. vernalis, the spring-flowering form of the species. Here in the North West it usually flowers around mid-February.

(I like to describe the plants I sell as best I can from my own experience of growing them.  For the history of each individual snowdrop, I use books, websites and information from friends and others in the snowdrop world, some of whom have given me insight into information about cultivars that isn't readily available elsewhere.  Where information has come from a third party, I always try to make sure the source is credited.  Please note that not everything written about snowdrops in books or on websites is completely accurate, so if you spot anything on my website that you believe is wrong, I'd be really grateful if you would get in touch and let me know.  The same goes for any information you may have about any of the snowdrops on my website: if you'd be willing to share it with me and happy for me to publish it here, I'd love to hear from you.  I'm always open to changing the information on my listings, and I'll always credit any new sources.  My ultimate aim is for this website to be a trusted reference for snowdrops, so it is vital to me that the information is accurate.)
