	Snowdrop Petition - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Snowdrop Campaign was founded after the Dunblane Massacre in March 1996 to call for a total ban on the private ownership and use of handguns in the United Kingdom.
		Founded by friends of the bereaved families and so called because March is snowdrop time in Scotland, it successfully gained over 705,000 signatures to a petition within 6 weeks.
		Because of slight differences in the layout of the internet and photocopied forms used the organisers were able to estimate that between a quarter and a third of all forms had been sent by email at some point.

		Snowdrop, usually spoken of as the first flower of our year, though the Winter Aconite has perhaps a better title to be so considered, has never been of much account in physic, and has never been recognized.
		Gerard says 'nothing is set down hereof by the ancient Writers, nor anything observed by the moderne.' He calls it the Bulbous Violet, but adds that some call it the Snowdrop, the earliest mention of it by this name, and it was known to all the old botanists as a bulbous violet.
		In some districts snowdrops will grow and spread in woods as readily as the wild hyacinth; in others, with apparently identical conditions, it is difficult to get them to grow and they will refuse to spread.

		Snowdrop corms should be planted 3 inches deep in a well-prepared bed where they can settle in for a long time.
		Snowdrops are tough, belying their delicate appearance; they’ll bounce right back after even a heavy snowfall.
		But since snowdrop is the English garden emblem for January, and because it is a reminder that the plants in the garden so often symbolize renewal, I prefer to look at the snowdrop as a sign of the beginning of the season, rather than the end.

		Then she took the lovely Flower and laid it on a scented piece of paper that had a verse written on it, a verse about the Flower, beginning with "snowdrop" and ending with "snowdrop." "Little sweetheart, be my snowdrop, my winter fool!"-thus she had playfully mocked him with the summer.
		The maid who swept the room picked it up and placed it in one of the books on the table, for she thought it had fallen out when she was clearing up and putting things in order.
		And then the Snowdrop again was placed in the book, and felt both honored and delighted to know that it was a marker in the beautiful book of poetry, and that he who had first written and sung about the flower had also been a snowdrop and been mocked in the winter.

		But Snowdrop grew more and more beautiful; and when she was seven years old she was as bright as the day, and fairer than the queen herself.
		In the morning Snowdrop told them all her story; and they pitied her, and said if she would keep all things in order, and cook and wash and knit and spin for them, she might stay where she was, and they would take good care of her.
		And thus Snowdrop lay for a long, long time, and still only looked as though she was asleep; for she was even now as white as snow, and as red as blood, and as fl as ebony.
