Description

Leucojum Aestivum, also known as Summer Snowflake, is native to Europe. The plant is known for its delicate white flowers that resemble snowdrops but are larger and bloom in the summer. Leucojum Aestivum thrives in temperate climates and is an ideal choice for gardens and borders. The plant produces long flower stalks with bell-shaped flowers that have a refined and elegant appearance. These plants thrive best in moist, well-draining soil and can be planted in full sun or light shade. They are a beautiful addition to gardens and can also be used in natural landscapes and along water edges. Leucojum aestivum is a hardy plant that adapts well to different conditions. 

Care
Planting Leucojum Aestivum is a simple process that produces satisfactory results. Dig a hole slightly deeper than the height of the bulb and place the bulb with the tip up. Cover the bulb with soil and press lightly. It is best to plant several bulbs together to create a beautiful flower show. Leucojum aestivum does not require much care, but it is important to keep the soil moist during dry periods. After flowering, the spent flower stems can be cut off, but it is important to leave the foliage intact until it has completely wilted. This allows the plant to store energy for the next growing season.By following the planting instructions and giving the plant proper care, you can enjoy the charming flowers of Leucojum aestivum and transform your garden into a soothing and attractive outdoor space. 

Size
The flower bulbs have a circumference of approximately 8/9cm upon delivery.

Be a smarter gardener

Gardening organically is a more affordable and long term alternative to using chemical fertilisers. Natural Grower products eliminate waste because the nutrients are slowly released to the plants as they need them. Over the long-term you save money because your soil health naturally improves, which in turn produces healthier, stronger, disease resistant plants. Chemical products may cost less financially in the short term, but they don’t provide any long-term benefits and the damage they do to the natural eco-system in the soil is costly.

Slow release for sustained growth

Organic fertilisers are broken down slowly by organisms in the soil to produce a more measured, consistent, natural release of nutrients. This results in uniform growth with strong stems and leaves, unlike chemical fertilisers which provide a sudden boost resulting in tall lanky plants. Stronger plants are more resistant to disease, and with the presence of mycorrizhal fungi to strengthen the roots, the plants, soil and fungi all work together long-term to create the perfect natural eco-system.

Love your land

The organic matter in Natural Grower will help keep your soil or compost in optimum condition, retain moisture over the dry summer months and improve the health and structure of your soil. The presence of natural Mycorrhizal fungi in our products enhances root growth, enabling plants to extract nutrients and absorb water more efficiently from the soil or compost. By using our products you will be supporting and enhancing the natural eco-system in the soil.

Embrace sustainability

Natural Grower’s chemical free fertiliser products are approved organic, biodynamic and vegan. Plant-based and free from chemicals they are safe to use around wildlife, pets and children. Eco-friendly and sustainably produced in the UK. Our packaging is made from recycled plastic where possible and is all 100% recyclable.
