Product Description
Stunning goblet shaped flowers that bring one of the first bursts of colour to the garden in spring. Each oval shaped petal is starch white with a heavy purple bruise on the outside which flushes through to the flowers heart, giving it a pale blue flush. 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. 5/6cm corms supplied. Flowers February to March.
