Leucojum vernum, commonly called the spring snowflake, is a species of flowering plant in the family Amaryllidaceae. It is native to central and southern Europe from Belgium to Ukraine. L. vernum is cultivated as an ornamental plant for its white flowers in spring. The plant multiplies in favourable conditions to form clumps. Each plant bears a single white flower with greenish marks near the tip of the tepal, on a stem about 10 to 20 centimetres (3.9 to 7.9 inches) tall, occasionally more. The Latin specific epithetvernum means 'relating to spring'; its close relative, L. aestivum, blooms in summer. This photograph of a L. vernum flower, taken in Bamberg, Germany, was focus-stacked from 32 separate images.Photograph credit: Reinhold Möller
