Default Saffron Crocus

We've had three flowerings from our Saffron Crocus, so we decided it was time to lift the corms and separate them and fill the garden bed they are in and let them do their thing. Among the corms were some large ones that had already started to shoot with a good root system, but there were also a lot of smaller ones too. We've had this dedicated bed since they first arrived here. We planted every corm so the bed is now as full as it can be. We added cow manure and blood & bone to give them a start into Winter.


Last season we got 53 flowers from this bed.
