Description
Minimus is one of the most striking wild forms of snow crocus. With heavy purple flame on pure white, these little jewels literally sparkle in early spring. Great for wildflower gardens.
These are the ones called 'Snow Crocus' for obvious reasons. They bloom well before the Dutch Crocus, so for a long season of crocus bloom, plant them both. They work almost exactly the same. Unlike the Dutch crocus group of hybrids, these are true 'wild bulbs'--species crocus that grow in the wild in Greece and other areas. Add these jewel-toned beauties to your wildflower collection, and you'll enjoy them for years.
