Crocus 'Blue-White' – 240 flower bulbs (bulb size 7/8)

Crocus 'Blue-White' blooms in blue and white from February through April. With 240 bulbs in this package, you will cover approximately 1 m². 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 size of 7/8: the circumference of the bulb in centimeters. The larger the bulb, the more vigorous the bloom.
