The tommasinianus crocus are the wonderful, generous ones which scatter themselves from a handful of bulbs over your lawn in just a few years

I adore these February performers for their earliness, delicacy and reliability — and here, in a rare darker than usual purple (not mauve) form.

On occasion we may need to send you an alternative variety to the one shown, which will be selected by our growing team to ensure its suitability. It will be of equal or greater value to the original. Please contact our customer service team if there are any problems.

This can be gift wrapped in our exclusive hessian sack, with ribbon and a Sarah Raven gift card. You will be able to add this to your basket once you begin the checkout process. To add a gift message to your order, simply fill out the details at the delivery stage of the checkout.

Please note: only items which are showing ‘in stock’ can be gift wrapped.

Cultivation
Dig a hole 4 times as deep as the bulb is high, the deeper the better as this will make stronger plants less likely to snap and more reliably perennial. Position on a bed of grit, on their side and backfill with plenty of grit to aid drainage.

Care Tips

Can be naturalized easily in grass but wait until the foliage has died down in June to cut the grass.
