Product description

Crocus tommasinianus is a botanical crocus in lilac-purple, around 10 cm tall, flowering in February. It naturalises well and returns year after year; within a few years it forms broad carpets in lawns, verges or beneath trees and shrubs. It is also suitable for historic stinze plantings. The early flowers provide valuable pollen and nectar for bees. Guideline for large-scale planting: around 200 bulbs per m2. Plant the bulbs in autumn about 5 cm deep in a sunny to lightly shaded spot in well-drained soil.
