Crocus 'Botanical Mixed'

According to myths, the gods of ancient Roman and Greek times spent a lot of time turning unfortunate men (and women) into flowers. Crocus, a mortal youth, was apparently one. Depending on the version you read, he was either being punished for being unhappy with his love affair with a nymph, or was changed because the god Hermes felt guilty about accidentally killing him with a discus. With this heritage, it’s no wonder the small botanical crocus plants put on such a show in drifts, lawns, beds, along pathways, under shrubs and almost anywhere where the sun shines in early spring. Try planting a mixed colour selection of these easily-naturalized botanical crocus bulbs so that you can enjoy the drama every year.

We always use the best quality botanical crocus bulbs for this collection which means that the varieties we choose to create this look may differ from year to year. The botanical crocus varieties used in this collection may not be the same as the varieties pictured, and there will be a slight variation in colours.
