Crocus baytopiorum ..... wish they would 'pop up' in pots here :-)
At last it starts to bloom. To the crocus I have a question. It is assumed that plants that are faded from farmyard gardens are found here in damp places. It is (except C. alatavicus) the first crocus which appears here. Much earlier than the whole garden crocuses. What kind could that be? We also have a native crocus species (C. vernus), but the flowers are very late and the flowers are longer and much more cattle.C. tommasinianus
Some years ago I bought some Crocus Tricolor. Among them was a few of these. They grow very well in the garden and set seeds every year.Can anyone identify them?Poul
This is Crocus hadriaticus, Dave. I like the forms with a brown tube.
Another unknown autumn Crocus .Cheers Dave.Edit been given an Id of 'Crocus pulchellus, but looks like it has some speciosus blood, so probably a hybrid'.
