Hi Paul:
Both forms of Leucojum autumnale come from different regions of
the Mediterranean. It is the environment that prompted them to behave that
way (lack of water I mean). I grow both forms and they behave exactly as
described but during summer both go to sleep and have no leaves at all. This
despite the fact that they are in the open in a raised bed and receive our
year round rains.
I really wish they would invade my beds like Jane's! They grow well here but
are not invasive.
Best regards
Alberto
