Oron -  very nice crocus. The C. pallasii from Chios is especially attractive.
Gerry passed away  at home  on 25th February 2021 - his posts are  left  in the  forum in memory of him.
His was a long life - lived well.

I do like that final C.pallasii. If she is still unmarried next year, I am sure we could find her a good husband here  ;)

Oron

I thought that Crocus wattiorum was my favourite Crocus, but you are making it very difficult.  Ochroleucus albus and veneris are beautiful and the pallasii from Chios is very desirable.

Thanks for posting

Well, it would be interesting to see what the offspring of two 'distant relatives' would look like. I would be happy to reciprocate with bulgarian seed.  :)

Hello Oron, Lovely photo`s, here, mine have all finished flowering for the season. I think your Nerimaniae is the best one. Please send your next seed list to me.
                                                       Best wishes, James
