- Large-flowered, colourful blooms.
Planting Instructions
- Planting time: September to December, as long as the ground is not frozen.
- Location: Choose a sunny to partially shaded spot.
- Soil: Well-drained soil is important. Crocuses do not like wet feet.
- Planting depth: Plant the bulbs approximately 7–10 cm deep.
- Planting distance: Keep approximately 5–8 cm between the bulbs.
- Quantity: With 100 bulbs and a planting distance of 5–8 cm, you can create a beautiful dense group or several smaller groups.
- Planting: Loosen the soil and place the bulbs with the pointed end facing upwards. Cover them with soil and water if necessary.
- After planting: Allow the bulbs to overwinter undisturbed in the soil. Extra protection is normally not necessary.
- After flowering: Allow the foliage to die back completely before removing it. This allows the bulb to store energy for the following year.
- Tip: Plant the bulbs in small groups for a natural and colourful effect.
