(3-4" tall x 2" wide) The earliest of spring's
flowers, Yellow & Purple Snow Crocus Mix will gladden the gardener's
spirits with plucky rich purple and golden yellow color before other flowers
appear. The small cup-shaped blooms are best viewed in sweeps of color, so
plant them in masses where they will show off and multiply over the years to
great visual effect. Snow Crocuses open wide in the sun and close up on rainy
days and at night. Easy to grow, plant the bulbs in well-drained soil 3-5"
deep, where they will receive at least 6 hours of sun per day. Lovely along
walks, around trees, nestled in rock gardens, and under shrubs. Plant with
Snowdrop (Galanthus) and Dwarf Iris (Iris reticulata). Deer, squirrel, and
rabbit resistant.
