Crocus ‘Remembrance’ produces an abundance of amethyst-violet flowers, which bloom during February and March, for a long-lasting and colourful display in the home.

A silvery gloss makes the exquisite flowers gleam as they open wide in the spring sunshine, exposing bright orange stamens.

Plant the bulbs in November or December and keep pots in a cool dark place for 12 weeks before bringing out of storage and placing in a warm, bright spot where they will quickly bloom.

For a naturalistic look to your indoor displays, you can cover the bare soil after planting with moss.
