Something of a shock to realise that November is here - it has been a fast moving year!

Ruben, I like Crocus moabiticus very much since I have seen it in Oron Peris book. And you really have it.

Here are the two flowering Crocus tournefortii from Siros from the side.

Have taken loads of pictures of that 'weed' in my garden, Crocus pulchellus.  First flower was seen on September 5th and it is still flowering.
The last picture is in rough grass at the edge of the 'lawn' ( not where the crocus has naturalised) where I have been scattering seed for a few years.  Good to see results.  I want it here not where it is spreading by itself.

I know it's got a mind of its own, Roma - but these shots are so pretty!

From Wim Boens‎

Just a small message to remind people to fertilise/pollinate the Crocuses which are flowering now in their garden, please!!! So you get a good seedset for the exchange of the Crocus Group!

Seconded! I love that image of Crocus (biflorus) melantherus - I've just bought a bulb of this so really hope it looks as good for me.

no more sun, but in the greenhouse some late autumn crocus are flowering

Crocus nerimaniae
Crocus tournefortii

I had the bad surprise to find few pots eaten by mouses and off course bulbs are lost :'(
This is incredible how they can shred solid plastic.

Yann sorry for you.
Throughout my pots at regular intervals, I place little bags with poisoned bait for mice. There are regularly disappear but the bulbs remain there.
