Crocus - Roseus - Silvery Lilac Spring Carpet - Bulbs - Giga Pack - 500 pcs

Crocus Roseus brings a distinct touch to early spring displays with its silvery-lilac blooms. Each flower opens in a gentle gradient from soft violet to shimmering tones, creating a refined contrast against fresh spring foliage. With a compact form and a height of just 10 cm, this variety is ideal for planting at the front of borders, in rock gardens, or along paths, where it forms a dense, eye-catching carpet of colour as the season begins.

Planting Time

Plant Crocus Roseus bulbs between September and the end of October. Early autumn planting ensures the bulbs have time to establish roots before winter, which is essential for healthy spring growth.

Planting Depth

Set the bulbs at a depth of 6-8 cm. Planting at this depth supports stable development and helps protect the bulbs from winter cold.

Spacing

Allow 5-10 cm between each bulb. This spacing encourages healthy growth and enables the plants to form dense, attractive clusters.

Height

Crocus Roseus reaches up to 10 cm in height. Its low growth makes it well-suited for edging, compact borders, and for combining with other early-flowering garden bulbs.

Flowering Time

Flowers appear as early as March, signalling the start of spring. The light purple petals open fully on sunny days, revealing a striking contrast of stamens and pistil in the centre.

Hardiness & Overwintering

This variety is fully hardy and survives winter in the ground without the need for lifting or additional protection. It is a reliable perennial bulb, returning year after year.

Uses

Crocus Roseus is versatile - ideal for rockeries, low borders, and lining garden paths. The silvery-lilac flowers stand out on lawns, creating bold patches of early spring colour. These bulbs can also be grown in pots on balconies or terraces, and combine well with other spring-flowering bulbs for varied displays.
