With regard to:

GP06M11

Arthur I will have to check my records.  I believe it is Crocus veluchensis which, I collected on mount Ossa in 2011 where some very fine specimens occur.

Janis, it is not Crocus pelistericus since I have never collected in Macedonia.  I have collected, so far, only from various regions in Thessaly.

When our team (Kurt Vicklery, Henrik Zetterlund and I) found both species (veluchensis and pelistericus) side by side in Republic of Macedonia, flowers of both were so similar that only leaves and corms allowed to separate them

Thanks Tatsuo!
I got this clone as a smallish corm from Jan Jilek two years ago. It came from stock that Jan collected -probably in Turkmenistan but I have no details of its exact provenance. It seems to be darker than the selected clone "Turkmenian Night".
Thank you, Steve :) I'll order some bulbs to him this year!
