Probably the prettiest crocuses I've planted. The centre is a beautiful golden yellow, surrounded by three white petals that contrast wonderfully with the violet of the outer petals. Planted a bit late, they are currently in full bloom for already 15 days. Very good growth, I'm delighted!

Description

Beautiful botanical crocus with tender blue flowers on the outside, white on the inside that blooms at the same time as snowdrops. The first flowers in spring.

The flowers close at night and in bad weather to open wide in the sun. Crocuses prefer to stay in place where they easily naturalise to grow and form bright patches.

Planting and care

Plant the bulbs from September to December, in light soil, at a depth of 5 cm (2in) and with a spacing of 5 cm (2in), or in groups of three every 15 to 20 cm (6 to 8in). It is preferable to leave them in place. They will form increasingly floriferous clumps. Also consider making some pots for your terrace.
