Description
The comman snowdrop, named Galanthus nivalis by Carl Linnaeus, is often taken to be the harbinger of the end of winter and the coming of spring. This is probably why it is refered to as the Flower of Hope in English. It is one of the most popular bulbs in cultivation, with rare flower forms fetching high prices per bulb.
The common snowdrop contains an alkaloid, galanthamine, which has been approved for use in the management of Alzheimer's disease in a number of countries.

Great title for a beautiful image. I love snowdrops and miss them so much here in Florida. They are simple flowers and you captured that in the simplicity of the shot! v/f
