Description

Named after my brilliant Dutch garden designer friend, Carien van Boxtel, this is a truly wonderful crocus collection which kicks off a succession of naturalised bulbs in her lawn in Zaltbommel, south of Amsterdam. All the crocus here have been thriving and spreading for years; they are the prettiest, most delicate looking forms, and are now available in a beautiful Sarah Raven gift box, all packed ready to give to your gardening family and friends. Wonderful!

This collection contains 25 corms each of:
  • Crocus chrysanthus 'Cream Beauty'
  • Crocus biflorus 'Blue Pearl'
  • Crocus tommasinianus
  • Crocus. chrysanthus. var. fuscotinctus
  • Crocus chrysanthus 'Snow Bunting'
  • Crocus vernus

Gift box measures L.33.5cm x W.22.5cm x H.11cm

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.

Care Tips

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