Snowdrops and Hellebores at Brandywine Cottage – A Tour with David Culp

David Culp is famous for his breeding of the Brandywine strain of hellebores and for championing rare and beautiful snowdrops (Galanthus). Every year he hosts the Galanthus Gala to kick off the garden season and showcase these lovely denizens of early spring. David will guide us on an early spring stroll at his famous Brandywine Cottage highlighting these choice plants.
