Blue crocus – 120 flower bulbs (size 7/8)

Blue crocus blooms in blue from February through April. With 120 bulbs in this package, you will fill a group of approximately 80 × 80 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, border edges, under shrubs, and in small pots. The bulbs have a bulb size of 7/8: the circumference of the bulb in centimeters. The larger the bulb, the more vigorous the bloom.
