Glory of the snow care and growing guide – expert tips for these early blooms

Glory of the snow.

Glory of the snow, or Scilla luciliae, is a spring flowering perennial with dainty blooms of beautiful, blue-purple hues. They grow to a height of six inches on average and are versatile, often grown under deciduous trees, in containers or gravel gardens.

They are native to western Turkey and gain their common name from their tendency to bloom early in spring, with their star-shaped flowers peeking above snow-covered ground.
