Crocus - Tricolor - Delicately Fragrant Spring Accent - Bulbs - 10 pcs

Crocus Tricolor brings an early splash of colour and gentle fragrance just as winter recedes. With its distinct blend of purple, white, and yellow, this compact crocus is among the first to bloom in the garden, often opening its scented flowers in the soft sunlight of March. Growing to just 8-10 cm, it’s ideal for borders, under trees, or naturalistic plantings, providing a subtle yet elegant signal that spring has arrived. Its low-growing habit and delicate scent make it a valued addition for gardeners seeking perennial bulbs that are easy to care for and rewarding each year.

Planting Time

For best results, plant Crocus Tricolor bulbs from September to October. This autumn planting period allows the bulbs to establish strong roots before winter sets in, ensuring healthy growth and reliable flowering come early spring.

Planting Depth

Set the bulbs at a depth of 6-8 cm in well-drained soil. This depth provides the right conditions for safe overwintering and healthy development, supporting the bulbs’ natural cycle.

Spacing

Space the bulbs 10-15 cm apart. This distance allows each plant enough room to develop fully and ensures a balanced, attractive display whether planted in groups or among other garden bulbs.

Height

When in flower, Crocus Tricolor typically reaches 8-10 cm in height. Its compact size is well-suited to edging, rockeries, lawns, or planting among ornamental grasses.

Flowering Time

Crocus Tricolor flowers in early spring, from March to April. Its blooms often appear before the leaves on many trees, brightening the garden with colour at a time when little else is in flower.

Hardiness & Overwintering

These bulbs are fully hardy and tolerate winter conditions without the need for lifting or special protection. Once planted, they return reliably each year, making them a practical choice for perennial displays.

Uses

Crocus Tricolor suits a variety of garden settings, from borders and rock gardens to containers on terraces or balconies. The flowers work well in group plantings, creating striking patches of colour. Their early scent attracts pollinators, supporting garden biodiversity in spring. These garden bulbs are also suitable for naturalising in grassy areas beneath trees.
