LucI could almost be back at Ulu Dag. The hybrid colours are really excellent.
No idea of type,but certainly brightens up the garden.

Much as I adore Crocus, Simon, I'm finding myself sidetracked by the warmth of the sun in your photos.....the pictures just ooze good light! Fab!!That great ,clear yellow of 'Little Amber' does help the sunny theme ,though, doesn't it?
We discussed hybrids, earlier on in the season, here's some work from the bees in the garden... 1) is a group of mixed Crocus from a Garden center, that I've been growing in the same spot, on a raised bed, for over 10 years - they don't seem to increase, but carry on as they are - maybe the experts can confirm they are biflorus or chrysanthus type ?? Anyway, last year, I spotted some seedlings growing at the bottom of the raised bed, I dug them up and planted them at a more suitable spot.2-3-4 and 5 are the results. I'm quite happy with them
First 2 photos are general view in my 'scree'.
