Galanthus elwesii ‘Polar Bear’ is a robust, early-flowering snowdrop that typically reaches around 15-20 cm in height, forming neat clumps of broad, glaucous grey-green foliage. Its large, pure white flowers are held on sturdy stems, making it particularly eye-catching in late winter when little else is in bloom. This variety thrives best in moist but free-draining soil and prefers a position in partial shade, although it will tolerate full sun in winter and early spring before tree canopies fill out. Rich, humus-laden soil suits it perfectly, especially in woodland gardens or under deciduous shrubs. Once established, it is hardy, dependable, and slowly naturalises, creating cheerful drifts that signal the end of winter

Erica darleyensis ‘Ghost Hills’ is a compact, evergreen winter-flowering heather valued for its pale pink to near-white flowers and neat, tidy habit. In Northern Ireland, it performs very reliably, flowering from mid-winter into early spring and providing valuable colour and nectar when little else is in bloom. Plants typically reach 30–40 cm in height with a spread of 45–60 cm, making them ideal for ground cover, borders, banks, containers, and mixed heather plantings. It grows best in full sun to light shade and prefers free-draining soil, but is more tolerant of neutral or slightly alkaline conditions than many ericas. Fully hardy and wind-resistant, it suits NI’s cool, damp climate well. A light trim after flowering keeps plants compact and healthy.

Crocus vernus ‘Pickwick’ is a classic spring crocus with bold lilac-purple petals neatly striped with white, flowering in late winter to early spring when the garden is still half asleep. Each bulb grows to around 10–15 cm high with blooms about 5 cm across, making them perfect for lawns, borders, pots, and naturalising under trees. In Northern Ireland, they thrive in full sun to light shade and prefer free-draining soil—heavy ground is fine if improved slightly, as soggy bulbs are grumpy bulbs. Plant bulbs in autumn at 7–10 cm deep, spacing roughly 5 cm apart; a pack of 120 bulbs will create a generous drift covering around 1.5–2 m², delivering an early splash of colour just when you need cheering up most. Tough, reliable, and pollinator-friendly—basically small but mighty. 🌱

In Northern Ireland’s cool, often damp climate, it thrives in full sun with good air circulation; aim for a sheltered, frost-free spot and plant after all risk of frost has passed.

Stake the plants early so you’re not wrestling tall stems later, and use a balanced feed throughout the season to keep blooms coming from midsummer right through to first frost. Regular dead-heading encourages more flowers and fewer sulky tubers. With these conditions, ‘Cambridge’ will reward you with reliably lush summer and autumn colour.
