Leucojum (name- discussed below). Also written Leucoium. Amaryllidaceae. Snowflake. Hardy bulbous plants growing a foot or less high and bearing dainty, nodding, 6-parted flowers, which are white, tipped with green, yellow, or a tinge of red.
Perianth-tube none; segms. uniform, ovate or oblong, spreading; stamens epigynous; filaments filiform, shorter than the linear-oblong basifixed anthers; ovary 3-celled; ovules many in a cell, superposed; styles filiform or strumose near the apex; stigma minute, capitate: fruits finally dehiscing loculicidally into 3 valves from the top; seeds subglobose; testa usually black: rootstock a bulb, with membranous tunics: leaves slender or lorate: flowers 1 or several in an umbel, white, tinged with red or green; spathe-valves usually single. — Eight species, natives of Eu. and the Medit. region, 6 of which are cultured The name Leucojum was given by Linnaeus, but he did not explain the application. The old Greek name, Leucoion, was given by Theophrastus to a plant now supposed to be a crucifer, like some stock or wallflower. Leucoion is from leukos, shining, white, and ion, violet. Parkinson called it the "great early bulbous violet." Snowflakes appear about the same time as white violets, and sometimes have a delicate odor, resembling that of the violet.
Leucojums are best planted in dense groups, and allowed to remain undisturbed for a number of years. When bulbs are procured in the fall, plant immediately. Suitable for border, rock-garden or grass. Plant in a well-drained soil about 3 inches deep. Give a good winter protection. They are less popular than snowdrops (Galanthus), to which they are closely related, and have larger flowers, with all the segms. of equal size.
