A tiny clump of snowdrops pokes out of the dried grass. The leaves and stems are a brilliant green while the petals almost glow white.

A tiny clump of snowdrops pokes out of the dried grass. The leaves and stems are a brilliant green while the petals almost glow white.

I went looking for snowdrops today as it's Candlemas - they're supposed to bloom at Candlemas so they're known as 'Candlemas bells'. They're also called dewdrops, death's flower, Eve's tear, February fair-maids, and Mary's tapers. Round our way, they also came out in mid-January! #PlantFolklore

A collage of seven close-up and group photos of pure white snowdrops (Galanthus nivalis). The top-left and bottom-right images feature clusters of snowdrops emerging from the ground among fallen leaves. The other images highlight individual blooms, showcasing their delicate, nodding, bell-shaped petals and green markings against a soft-focus green background. The overall composition emphasizes the beauty and purity of these late winter flowers.

February takes its name from the Roman purification rituals known as Februa. Snowdrops, often called β€œfair maids of February,” bloom at this time and have become symbols of purity & renewal. They are also commonly known as the β€œpurification flower” and associated with #Candlemas.
