Galanthus nivalis 'Écusson d'Or' is a really special yellow snowdrop which was discovered in northern France in the early 2000s. The name translates as 'Shield of Gold' and comes from the little place near where it was found, which suits it perfectly.
What makes it stand out from other yellow G. nivalis is that the yellow isn't just on the ovary and inner segments; the outers carry yellow markings at their tips too. The colouring often starts off with a hint of green and turns to a rich lemon yellow after a day or so, and the markings are so neat and fine they look almost hand-painted. It isn't the quickest to bulk up, but it's well worth the wait. It flowers here in the North West in early February.
