Crocus Tommasinianus

Perhaps the easiest of crocuses to grow, these lovely blue flowers which are a shining silver-grey on the outside with bright yellow anthers, are one of the best to naturalise as they will self-seed readily and also increase by offsets. They do very well in short grass, are hardy throughout the British Isles and are always a welcome sight in late winter. They are also magnets for any insects that may be active so early in the year.
