Product Description:

Crocus sativus Add a new dimension to your edible ornamental garden with this exquisite variety. Lilac-purple petals are veined with dark purple, setting off 3 long, brilliant red stigmas, which are the portion of the flower used as a spice. The heart of the bloom is a deepened plum color, which serves as an intense contrast to the golden yellow pollen. Plants reach 4-5 inches, and are hardy in zones 6-9. Since this is a fall-blooming variety, it should be planted immediately upon arrival.

Ships in September. Order early for best availability. Detailed planting instructions are included with each order, and may be obtained below. Available only within the contiguous US.
