Colchicum bulbs are very big! In August I divided some and took this picture then. Scissors are big kitchen scissors as I didn't have anything else to compare with at the time.
I have planted them quite deep, but they seem to come closer to the surface in time. Maybe that happens when they become too crowded..
Gail, your 'Innocence' is so prolific and pretty!
Three years ago I bought C. x byzantinum 'Album' which is the same as 'Innocence' I read now in Colchicum book.
'World Champion's Cup' is a new one for me, planted this summer, and so is also 'Rosy Dawn'
In the last picture there is 'Emerald Town on the left and 'William Dykes' on the right.
