Thank you Maggi  :-*

I would say they have a little smell ...but I dont know which ...

I was really confused when I saw it this morning ...they look really like a Crocus
 :o and I have not any Crocus in my greenhouse !

Now I will look for pics of my other Haylockia ( flowering in spring ) ...

Hi Maggi ,

after a lot of searching I have found a note from Prof. Ravenna about Haylockia :

“sweet scent, a condition not found in any other species of the genus”


no wonder when I have not know this scent  ::)
