Crocus in Slovenia
« on: March 18, 2017, 09:58:35 AM »
I am going to visiting Slovenia in about ten days, mainly in search for Hellebores.
Crocus vittatus and vernus /albiflorus) are common there, but I have never seen weldenii in Slovenia, only in Croatia. Can anybody give directions where to see it and are there other Crocuses to be seen at the beginning of April in Slovenia?

Many thanks for your kind help!

Cr. biflorus ssp. biflorus   disappeared since years
Cr. biflorus ssp. wildenii   in the karst region, but the best side is on the Italien side of the border
Cr. reticulatus                 propably the flowers are all gone in April

you could only see Cr. albiflorus and Cr. exiguus in higher altitudes
