This is Crocus sieberi "George" - according to Janis, this is a mutant from C. "Hubert Edelsten", itself a cross between C. sieberi ssp sieberi and C. sieberi ssp atticus.

Arthur it hard to ID your yellow one without open flowers and corm tunic.But the broad leaves could point to C. olivieri.
ThomasYou need sun for open flowers
Here still deep winter and only place to see crocuses is Forum and pictures of last year. This week I together with helper worked hard cleaning tons of snow from roofs of my polytunnels and shoveling it from sides of greenhouses. At least slept very well in night although sometimes awakened from nightmares continuing shoveling...So I can add pictures only from previous years. As higher were mentioned one of the very best crocuses from Turkey - Crocus baytopiorum, recently separated from others in its own Series Baytopi, I want to show few pictures of this very unusual and something variable species. The best is LST stock, less spectacular - unknown origin from Dutch nursery (I think that I got this from W. van Eeden many years ago).Janis
