I live near the Polar circle and we have no snowdrops in the woods.
Of course! Snowdrops are not native to your region.
But I am sure you can try them in the garden. Galanthus nivalis and G. plicathus should be hardy enough.

Maybe in a few years when they can start export from the Ucraine to the Netherlands Olga!
Are they going to raze Crimea?  ;D Probably you are right.  ;)

Mila, as far as I know, snowdrops are in the collection of Polar-Alpine Garden-Institute in Kirovsk- and this is north of the Polar Circle :)) So the most winter-hardy species should normally grow and bloom in your region.
