Thank you all,I find the high mountain ones relatively straightforward,just need a bit of warmth and sunshine to get them to open.

It's been cold and dull since we got back from London midweek.  Here are three pictures from the one sunny day before we went.

Two forms of Crocus sieberi ssp sublimis, both delicious!

Crocus kerndorffiorum x leitchlinii.  An unusual shade of blue which it inherits from Crocus leitchlinii (which I have never grown) this hybrid is pleasingly vigorous.

I have posted a pic of a new (and rather nice) seedling from Crocus sieberi ssp sieberi on my Blog from an Untidy garden thread. You'll have to look there - I don't like repeats!

I like this hybrid, Tony, too. It is good grower and of very pleasant colour.

A Crocus chrysanthus from Northern Greece which only opened from tight bud by bringing indoors, or can the experts please tell me if I have the wrong species?

Super crocus images from everybody My meadow is still covered with snow. Nothing to show yet.

Melvyn,
very beautiful crocus but images puzzles me (you seemed to doubt too).

Form of style, style color, anthers and outside markings do not look like typical C. chrysanthus posted in the past from the region.
To me style and anthers look more like C. flavus which I personally know only the pure yellow /orange forms without outer markings but  therfore I can also imagine some C. oliveri blood. I don't know if the latter is growing up to Northern Greece.

Would like to read the experts comments and thoughts.
