Amaryllidaceae galanthus nivalis or the “common snowdrop” (snowdrop; Greek gála “milk”, ánthos “flower”)
Snowdrops breaking through the thawing ice. They are an inspiration to spring rejuvenation.
This is a small genus (group) of about 20 species of perennial herbaceous plants propagated by bulbs. The plants have two linear leaves and a single white drooping bell shaped flower with six petal-like tepals (petaloid) in two circles (whorls). There are green markings inside the smaller inner petals.

Snowdrops were named Galanthus in 1753 but have been known since early times under various names. Most species flower in winter, before the 21st of March in the Northern Hemisphere), but some flower in early spring and late autumn. Native to Europe and the Middle East.
