Large-flowered crocus mix – 30 flower bulbs (size 7/8)

Large Flowering Crocus mix blooms in mixed colours from February to April. With 30 bulbs in this pack, you can fill a group of approximately 40 × 40 cm. Crocuses open their flowers on the first sunny days of the year and are then an important food source for the first bees. They fit beautifully in lawns, at the edges of borders, under shrubs and in small pots. The bulbs have a bulb size of 7/8: the circumference of the bulb in centimetres. The larger the bulb, the more vigorous the bloom.
