| The blooming of snowdrops |
Snowdrop flowers have lower petals, three of which are longer than the others. There are green spots at the base, tip, or both of the petals. Their upright, cup-shaped flowers attract bees with their beautiful scent. Snowdrop pollen sticks to the backs and legs of bees that enter the flowers to collect nectar. Bees carry this pollen from flower to flower, helping with pollination. Another helper of snowdrops is ants. However, they don't help with pollination, but rather with the dispersal of seeds that emerge from the fruits. The seeds have a tasty part that ants love to eat. The ants carry these seeds to their nests. After eating the tasty part, they discard the seeds from the nest. These discarded seeds then develop into new plants within 3-4 years.
Snowdrops can be found in forests and mountains. There are 22 different types of snowdrops in the world.
