Made up from distinct mauve-blue and white varieties, this tonal collection of superior Crocus bulbs is perfect for planting as a yearly harbinger of spring.

Large-flowering Dutch Crocus flower during March each year, their gleaming cups create eye-catching drifts of colour – weave them through the front of a spring border and plant to naturalise in open grassy areas, perhaps beneath a mature tree where the dappled shade will make these sun-loving, ethereal blooms last a little longer.

Crocuses are wonderful for attracting pollinators into the garden and thrive in a sunny spot, in well-drained, fertile soil.
