0:06:34 > 0:06:38- It's a beautiful flower - with a delicate exterior...
0:06:38 > 0:06:43- ..but can withstand - the harsh winter conditions.
0:06:43 > 0:06:51- Aberglasney Gardens is the perfect - location to find out more about it.
0:06:56 > 0:07:01- Why do snowdrops blossom - during the winter months?
0:07:01 > 0:07:07- This flower differs to others as it - blooms at the same time every year.

0:07:41 > 0:07:45- Rare species differ - in colour and shape inside.
0:07:45 > 0:07:50- Some people will splash out 100 - for a single rare bulb.

0:07:53 > 0:07:56- We're in for a long walk.
0:07:56 > 0:08:00- We don't have search far - before finding some snowdrops.
0:08:00 > 0:08:05- I need some advice as I've always - wanted snowdrops in my garden.
0:08:06 > 0:08:09- Snowdrops will grow anywhere easily.
0:08:10 > 0:08:13- You don't need to worry about - special soil, shelter or sunlight.
0:08:13 > 0:08:17- All you need to do is plant them - and they will grow.
0:08:17 > 0:08:21- You could plant them in compost - which will improve their growth.
0:08:22 > 0:08:26- If you leave them, - they'll grow every year.
0:08:26 > 0:08:32- You have to be certain when you - plant these stubborn snowdrops.
0:08:33 > 0:08:37- Snowdrops can last - for hundreds of years.
0:08:37 > 0:08:39- If you see them in a forest...
0:08:40 > 0:08:45- ..it's likely they've been there - for just as long as the trees.
0:08:45 > 0:08:48- You'll usually find a section...
0:08:49 > 0:08:53- ..where the snowdrops have been - there longer than the oak trees.
0:08:53 > 0:08:57- How do you scatter them?
0:08:57 > 0:09:03- Wait until the flowers fall back - and there's an area of green...
0:09:03 > 0:09:08- ..before removing a section - and planting it in another area.
0:09:08 > 0:09:12- This section will continue - to grow at a yearly basis.
0:09:12 > 0:09:18- In a few years, you'll have - a garden full of snowdrops.
0:09:18 > 0:09:23- Aberglasney Gardens also have - a variety of different species.
0:09:24 > 0:09:29- These are very special - as they contain galanthamine.
0:09:30 > 0:09:35- Galanthamine assists with - the treatment of Alzheimer's.
0:09:35 > 0:09:39- This flower is simple, - but is also very important.
0:09:39 > 0:09:43- These wonderful flowers - are also medicinal but inedible.
0:09:48 > 0:09:55- You have to look carefully - to see how the blooms differ.
0:09:55 > 0:09:58- These are a great example as they - look like an average snowdrop...
0:09:59 > 0:10:03- ..but inside they have - double the amount of petals.
0:10:04 > 0:10:06- These snowdrops aren't as small!
0:10:06 > 0:10:09- No, they're slightly larger.
0:10:12 > 0:10:16- All you need for a lawn-full of - snowdrops is a pot containing one.
0:10:16 > 0:10:22- It shouldn't be difficult - to find a place to plant it!
0:10:37 > 0:10:46- By this time next year, - this area will be full of snowdrops.
0:11:00 > 0:11:08- The snowdrops look beautiful.

0:21:06 > 0:21:11- Highlights are running through it - but they tend to be on the top.
0:21:11 > 0:21:15- If the hair was lighter - and I cut it shorter on the sides...
0:21:15 > 0:21:19- ..we would have tiger spots - - and we don't want that!
