Colchicum name

[Ulla Hansson]

I bought one colchicum, the label says Colchicum pamiricum. I have try to find information about this bulb, but I can’t find anything. My question, is there any plant with this name?

Ulla, I did a search on the name at IPNI.ORG, and cannot find any published name C. "pamiricum".  A quick google search also does not find any results.  Maybe someone labeled mixed up the name with another species names that denotes a geographical area; perhaps C. parnassicum?

Another suggestion: Colchicum pannonicum?

Mark and Rob, thanks for the reply. I just have to wait and see what happens when it blooms, but this does not happen this fall. I think it needs to grow a year before.
