The scientific name for snowdrops, small bulbous plants with white nodding flowers that bloom early in spring.
From Greek 'gala' (milk) and 'anthos' (flower), literally meaning 'milk flower,' referring to the pure white color of the petals.
Snowdrops are the first sign of spring in many places and are so early they sometimes bloom while there's still snow on the ground—and remarkably, they can generate their own heat to melt through snow, making them one of nature's most determined little plants.
