Snow Crocus have a graceful elegance that is hard to surpass. The blooms have a whispered fragrance that calls to the spring in the dying days of winter.

Crocus chrysanthus are also known as Snow Crocus or Botanical Crocus. They are much loved for their early colour, heart warming show and ease of care.

Snow Crocus grow best in Cool to Mediterranean climates where they impress in rockeries, beds, lawn plantings and pots. Plant in a sunny spot with well drained soil. Crocus will tolerate light shade, such as under deciduous trees, especially in warmer zones, but they need the sun in order to open their petals. They should be kept cool (by shade or mulch) in summer.

Snow Crocus bulbs don't need to be lifted every year, so you can allow them to naturalise and only dig and divide as required when they become crowded after four or five years. It is a good idea to protect new growth from slugs and snails. Fertilise your Crocus annually in winter and or spring depending on your soil.

Snow Crocus Collection, five of each variety, separately labelled. Includes ‘Prins Claus’, ‘Cream Beauty’, ‘Sunkist’, ‘Ard Schenk’ and ‘Blue Pearl’.
