Galanthus (Snowdrop) is a small genus of about 20 species of bulbous herbaceous plants in the family Amaryllidaceous, subfamily Amaryllidoideae . Most blossom in winter, before the vernal equinox (20 or 21 March in the Northern Hemisphere), but certain species bloom in early spring and late autumn.Snowdrops are sometimes confused with their relatives, snowflakes, which are Leucojum and Acis species.

Hydrangea (names hydrangea or hortensia) is a genus of 70-75 species of flowering plants native to southern and eastern Asia (China, Japan, Korea, the Himalayas, and Indonesia) and the Americas. By far the greatest species diversity is in eastern Asia, notably China, Japan, and Korea. Most are shrubs 1 to 3 meters tall, but some are small trees, and others lianas reaching up to 30 m (98 ft) by climbing up trees. They can be either deciduous or evergreen, though the widely cultivated temperate species are all deciduous.

Lilium (members of which are true lilies) is a genus of herbaceous flowering plants growing from bulbs, all with large prominent flowers. Lilies are a group of flowering plants which are important in culture and literature in much of the world. Most species are native to the temperate northern hemisphere, though their range extends into the northern subtropics. Many other plants have "lily" in their common name but are not related to true lilies.

The Lilium

The quince is a small deciduous tree that bears a pome fruit, similar in appearance to a pear, and bright golden-yellow when mature.

The fruit is 7 to 12 centimeters long and 6 to 9 centimeters across.
