Some very nice crocus being shown.I am not having a good autumn but here are a few in flower now

Also not too good here. Flowering is very erratic (though oddly enough C. niveus is better than it's ever been). I don't know whether this is a consequence of last winter's cold or the miserable summer.

Here is the same - blooming order very unusual and not so mass blooming than usually. Weather seem to be good, but size of some flowers smaller than usually. Niveus very good - same as with you.

First it was too cold, now it's too hot so a few pics whilst they last.

Crocus goulimyi 'Mani White' kindly sent to me by Gerry, and more to bloom from this pot.

Crocus goulimyi seedlings from a sowing made in August 2007 from SRGC Seed Ex.

Another one from Gerry, which he labels as C. tournifortii possibly crossed with laevigatus Form B.

Today I discovered these two self seedlings in my meadow. I think, they love themselves.
