Product Description
Pretty oval petals form an open cup like flower. Pale blue petals flushed golden yellow at the centre. Often viewed as the herald of spring crocus chrysanthus varieties flower earlier than the traditional large flowering Crocus and are sometimes referred to as the 'snow crocus'. A pure delight in early spring that, if left undisturbed, will multiply year after year. The flowers are delicate so we recommend you plant or place under taller shrubs and trees in beds, borders and containers. Also a great rockery plant, its mature height a compact 8-10cm. Flowers February to March. 5-6cm corms supplied.
