Crocus 'Vanguard' Corms

Crocus 'Vanguard' bulbs generate a breathtaking bloom, each sturdy stem featuring a spectacular flower. The outer petals possess a pale cream hue, while the internal petals display a muted grey-lilac exterior and a paler lilac interior. These delicate shades are complemented with the luminous yellow anthers at the core of the bloom.

Vanguard is an early-blooming type of crocus. These flowers thrive when planted in a sunny, moist soil. Additionally, crocuses are a great choice of flower for drawing in helpful pollinators, as the flowers produce a substantial amount of nectar.

Planting Time: September - December

Flowering Time: February - March

Max height: 10cm

Frequently Asked Questions

When is the best time for autumn planting of spring bulbs?

The ideal time to plant spring flowering bulbs like tulips, daffodils, crocus, and snowdrops is from September to November. Planting during this period allows bulbs to establish roots before winter and ensures a healthy, vibrant bloom in early spring, with stunning green foliage and flower colours ranging from purple and blue to bright yellows and whites.

How long do spring bulbs take to flower?

Most spring bulbs planted in autumn start to flower between February and May, depending on the type. Early bloomers like snowdrops and crocus appear first, while tulips and daffodils follow later in spring, creating a sequential display of colour.

Can I plant different types of spring bulbs together?

Yes! Mixing different bulbs such as tulips, daffodils, and muscari adds something extra in terms of colour and texture to your garden. Planting in clusters or drifts creates a natural, layered effect, letting you get a longer flowering season and a richer display for both you and pollinators.

Do I need to remove foliage after flowering?

Yes, but allow leaves to die back naturally rather than cutting them too early. Leaving the foliage lets the plant save energy, which the bulbs use to produce strong, vibrant flowers come next spring.
