A sensational botanical crocus colour selection belongs to staple plants on a spring border. Crocus heralds the coming of spring and pleases eyes with its saturated colours. The colourful mosaic of various shades of yellow, purple, and white can adorn different areas of a garden. The low growing, cheerful plant can fill borders, grow along paths, pavements, and driveways. It looks best planted in large groups. Colourful patches of spring crocus look spectacular in a rock garden or a naturalistic arrangement. We also recommend decorating a lawn with it. A brightly coloured crocus meadow evokes optimism and cheers you up after the period of grey and cold.
Plant botanical crocus in autumn, preferably in September and October. Put small bulbs 6 to 8-centimetres deep, 10 to 15-centimetres apart in permeable, fertile, and slightly acidic soil. Avoid heavy, waterlogging soil that may cause rotting of bulbs. We highly recommend using special plastic baskets for planting. Crocus produces the most flowers on a sunny site, yet partially shaded spots will not hurt flower production. Crocus bulbs are hardy and can stay in soil for several years. Excavate them every few years to improve plant's sturdiness and the flowering.
