These native European woodland plants are among the earliest to flower, and produce a bright display, especially when planted in large numbers under shrubs and deciduous trees. An efficient ground cover plant, it quickly spreads to become a carpet of pure golden yellow, just as the first snowdrops begin to bloom. Dry tubers can be bought in the autumn, but they are generally not as successul as plants bought 'in the green' (in leaf) either during or just after flowering time, which will establish much more readily. The Royal Horticultural Society has presented it with the Award of Garden Merit (AGM).
