Description
Tommasini’s crocus (Crocus tommasinianus)—or “Tommies,” as they are known to their friends—are one of the first flowers to appear in early spring: a welcome sight after a long winter. Their purple blooms reach about 4 inches tall. Growing from small corms, Tommies tend to self-sow and can form extensive carpets of bloom after many years. Give them a well-drained site that is sunny through spring; they’ll die back to the ground by early summer, so they don’t much care whether it’s sunny or shady after that. Zones 3 to 8.
2023-collected seeds are sold out. I hope to collect again in mid- to late May 2024. At least 20 seeds per packet. Shipping to U.S. addresses only.
Please read the germination information as well before ordering.
