044 - Crocus versicolor with angustifolius Bronce in the background
046 - C. x leonidii Early Gold, flowering very reliable and increasing very well.
051 - Crocus malyi, from Croatia. Nice pure white flowers and very hardy here.
030 - A nice Crocus vernus hybrid, that I found in my lawn years ago
025 - Crocus etruscus, the true form from Tuscany/Italy

020 - First Crocus versicolor flowering in my lawn, after I have sown many seeds over the years.
031 - Crocus neglectus, the new species from the vernus-group, found in Liguria/Italy
009 - Crocus variegatus from Slovenia, formerly named Crocus reticulatus but received its old name back last year
025 - Crocus heuffelianus collected in the Caucasus, looking like Carpathian Wonder, but with much stronger markings

The garden looks glorious, Thomas and that Crocus heuffelianus is a gem !

Very nice Thomas! I really love the species neglectus! Do you cover it in summer?

Thanks Kris and Luc.

No Ruben, they don't need cover. They are extremely hardy here and even have survived the bad blackfrost in 2012.

After your disappointment with those losses to the black frost, it is extra special to see these stunning photos now, hubi . 8) 8) 8)

Wonderful crocus show Thomas and Daniel.  Remarkable Crocus scardicus x pelistericus hybrid Dirk, different to previous C. x gothoburgensis I have seen pictures of.

Hello Cyril.
I am happy that you like them.
I was particularly delighted with the 3 flowers from the "Regenbogengold"- bulb
from Dirk.
Ciao- Daniel
