Description
Common Name: Large Flowering Dutch Crocus, Colourful Companions ‘Delft Duo’
Colourful Companions are beautiful, well thought out combinations of flower bulbs that take all the guesswork out of flower combining and garden design. Each September, new packs are released showcasing new combinations as well as the latest, greatest as well as outstanding and proven varieties.
This colourful companion pack contains 2 types of Crocus. ‘Delft Duo’ is a wonderful combination of early spring blooming crocus in shades of white and purple. Plant in large groups. Great for naturalizing. This new combination is ideal for cut flowers when it blooms in late spring.
Crocus flowers lead the way for other spring bloomers to follow. They bloom bright and early, bringing much needed colour after a long winter. These small-but-mighty plants with their colourful blooms and sweet fragrance lure hungry bees out of their hives. Crocus plants will multiply and come back year after year, bringing more blooms with them each time
Bulbs require well drained soil. Will not perform well if soil holds too much water. Add sand or grit to the bottom of the hole to improve drainage.
