Crocus sativus bulbs yield a unique plant, the delicate blooms of which appear in a soft lilac hue with a bold yellow anther, and three eye-catching crimson stigmas - the prized threads used in Saffron production.
The Saffron Crocus is a robust plant capable of flourishing in several environments, particularly one with a moist, well-drained soil and exposure to plentiful sunlight. It is an excellent option for cultivating a naturalised space and can grow and spread each year. Additionally, it is capable of attracting pollinators and other forms of wildlife to the area.
