Announcing the arrival of spring, even a small clump can be easily seen from a distance. Blooming early, they often emerge through a layer of snow. Leave undisturbed and they will bloom year after year, a treat for hibernating insects as they emerge from their winter slumbers, offering a vital supply of nectar and pollen. Collection comprises; Crocus chrysanthus 'Herald' - known as the Snow Crocus, fragrant, primrose-yellow goblets with darker golden centres and purple-maroon outer petals; Crocus oliviero subsp. balansae 'Orange Monarch' - the first bright orange bloom of the crocus family, goblet-shaped blooms each have dark, brownish-black veining that looks almost hand painted; and Crocus chrysanthus 'Ladykiller' - flowering earlier than Dutch Crocus, the cup-shaped blooms are pure, crisp white with heavy purple-mauve markings on the outer petals and yellow throat, quite outstanding.Growing from corms, Crocus will reach a height of approximately 8-10cm and are wonderful planted in borders and containers, in drifts or for naturalising in your lawn to dramatic effect. Fully hardy, they all prefer to be grown in moist, well-drained soil in sun or shade.
