Stunning nice form of mathewii Kris
Previous sunday Crocus mathewii was in ful flower in the garden .
Yes, John, we had a pleasant holiday in Liguria - realxing, beaching, hiking and botanising for 10 days
Seems like the crocuses in Benelux have survived much better outside than here, if I interpret your and Kris' great photos correct.
Sorry, Kris,I don't think that it is mathewii. May be some form of plaasii, although they are very close. In my mind mathewii allways associates with distinctly purple coloration - more or less large - in throat or white in albino. It is grey on your sample and I have several such pallasii in my collection.Janis
05 - This is what I received from Holland this summer as clusii, salzmannii, pulchellus Albus, pulchellus, Zephyr......some years ago at least a few corms were correct, but meanwhile they are 100% speciosus ......
