    Today we view snowdrops along the edge of Tongue Burn, marking the landscape in such a wonderful way scattered among the woodland walks, popping up between trees and along the shores of the Lochs making for an awesome spectacle. castlekennedygardens.com #snowdrops #galanthophiles #scotland #scottishsnowdropfestival #wildwalks ...

    Plucky wee Snowdrops are known as a symbol of hope, heralding that brighter days are drawing close. Thanks to the vigorous planting of the 10th Earl of Stair we have over ten varieties of snowdrops in the Walled Gardens including our very own unique specimen, Galanthus nivalis 'Lochinch' castlekennedygardens.com #snowdrops #scottishsnowdropfestival #discoverscotlandsgardens #lochinch #februaryflowers #RHS #royalbotabicalgardens #dumfriesandgalloway #stranraer ...

    Sometimes called the 'Fair Maids of February' snowdrops are so loved there is a special word for enthusiasts - Galanthophile - literally 'a lover of snowdrops'. As we enter mid February one of the most captivating places in Galloway to see carpets of these magical flowers is at CKG. By the Black Loch we have a special three mile route where they are particularly plentiful. Watch out for our next snowdrop highlight. castlekennedygardens.com #snowdrops #galanthophiles #scotland #scottishsnowdropfestival #wildwalks castlekennedygardens.com #scottishsnowdropfestival #DiscoverScottishGardens #snowdrops #galanthophiles #scottishgardens #woodlandwallks #dumfriesandgalloway #stranraer ...
