Description

Tricolor Species Crocus is a delightful early-spring treasure, loved for its striking three-color blooms that combine rich violet-purple petals, crisp white bands, and bright golden-yellow centers. These cheerful flowers appear just as winter begins to fade, creating a vibrant display that instantly brightens borders, rock gardens, containers, and naturalized areas. The unique color pattern gives each bloom a jewel-like appearance that stands out in the spring landscape.

Despite its delicate look, Tricolor Species Crocus is hardy, dependable, and easy to grow. It returns year after year and gradually multiplies to form beautiful clusters of color. Its early blooms are a valuable source of nectar for bees and other pollinators, making it both beautiful and beneficial. Charming, colorful, and full of personality, Tricolor Species Crocus is a wonderful way to welcome spring to the garden.

Planting Advice

Crocus like a sunny location, but will tolerate partial shade.
Crocus require well-drained soil with organic matter. Amend soil with organic matter such as compost, manure or peat humus.
Space your crocus 2-4” apart, or plant together in one large hole leaving a small amount of space between bulbs so they are not touching.
Crocus don’t always have a noticeably pointed end. Plant your crocus 2-3” deep, with the flattest side touching the earth. If you are unsure which side is up, plant the crocus corms on their side, they will straighten out to find the sun.
Fertilize at planting with Hi Yield Bulb Food or for organic gardening use Bulb-Tone. Apply fertilizer at least 2” below the bottom of the bulbs so that the roots will get the most benefit from the fertilizer.
Water the area the crocus have been planted immediately after. Additional water in fall and winter is not necessary; bulbs prefer to be kept dry when dormant.
Apply a 2” layer of mulch in late fall.

These crocuses were very cute (I was surprised by how petite they are). I'm looking forward to them naturalizing, they definitely need to be in bigger clumps to look good.

This is a unique crocus. Small but very cute goes along well with my giant rubies and daffodils. Looks better planted in a crowd. The foliage is slightly lighter in color than ruby and the base of the flower is orange on the outside. Delicious. Rabbit & deer seem to prefer jeanne and ruby over this. So far have not bothered even without wiring.
