Crocus Speciosus

The Autumn-flowering Crocus speciosus has reason to be a little blue about the coming onset of winter. All crocus flowers don’t like bad or dull weather, and have a tendency to close up tight when the sun doesn’t shine in their faces. So Crocus speciosus, compelled by nature to flower in autumn, is unlikely to be feeling jolly much of the time. However, if you plant this stunning bright blue crocus with its yellow cup base, yellow anthers and orange-red stigma, you’ll have something to smile at every year as it pops its bright head through other foliage in your autumn garden.
