Crocus Plant Profile and growing hints |
Crocus plants in the garden are a great bulb for naturalising into lawns in part shade, spring flowering species usually flower well before the lawn begins to grow.
Bulbs can be planted at a depth of 2" in small clumps - plant spring flowering crocus in Autumn. Crocus also grow well in pots or containers however remember to put the pots away in a cool shaded position during summer months.
We provide a plant profile, growing notes and links to nurseries. Crocus are a much varied genus and different species require different growing conditions. Crocus vernus is perhaps one of the easier species to start with, although many crocus are not overly difficult to grow.
Crocus are a genus of perennial flowering plants that grow from corms , The spice saffron is obtained from the stigmas of Crocus sativus. The name is derived from crocatus , meaning saffron yellow.
Crocus speciosus.
Try Crocus goulmyi, easy to grow in the garden or container, with deep lilac blue large flowers or crocus longiflorus with its large scented flowers.
Crocus caspias
Crocus grow well in containers, at the front of the border or they can be naturalised into a lawn. Try a humus rich well drained soil in a sunny position.
