Seed Production: After the snowdrop blooms have finished seed pods will form where the flower once was, to allow seed production and healthy bulbs that flower the following year, please allow the seed pods to drop off and the leaves to wither and turn brown before removing them. The green leaves provide vital nourishment for the bulbs. And must be allowed to die back naturally.
