Chionodoxa forbesii 'Pink Giant'

Chionodoxa 'Pink Giant' is a sturdy grower with bright pink blooms and white eyes; this variety dates to 1942.

These Mediterranean natives bloom very early and produce sprays of 5–10 star-shaped flowers in glorious shades of blue, pink, and white. Chionodoxa can carpet the bare soil of perennial beds just starting into growth, or play off the leaf color of Bergenia, Heuchera, and Tiarella, or combine with other April-blooming bulbs, such as Crocus or Trumpet Narcissus. Superb for naturalizing in full sun to partial shade in rock gardens, woodlands, and lawns.
