Crocus Vernus Blue Bulbs

Crocus Vernus Blue is a 15 pack of spring flowering crocus bulbs with clear blue blooms that appear from March to April. The low growing flowers bring early colour to sunny patio pots, containers, border fronts and grass areas.

These crocuses grow to around 10cm tall and are suitable for naturalising. They can be scattered through a lawn for a more relaxed look, then left undisturbed so the bulbs can spread gradually over the coming years.

Plant from September to November in moist but well drained soil, in a sunny position. Plant the bulbs around 10cm deep with 5cm spacing. If squirrels or mice are a problem, chicken wire can be laid over the planted area before covering with soil.
