Crocus April 2007
Otto Fauser:
Crocus autranii is quite rare but I have had it for about 10 years. It has nevered increased and never set seed though it flowers regularly. This flower has been a bit chewed by something.
This is a very nice deep coloured form of C. banaticus. There are very many in my garden, gradually spreading both bt seed and vegetatively.
Thomas Huber:
Hello Otto and welcome to the forum!
Wonderful photos, please show us more of your collection!
Here the last Crocus versicolor flowering in the
Alpes Maritimes in 1450 m last week:
Thomas Huber:
Not far away I found thousands of Bulbocodium/Colchicum vernum in flower:
Paul T:

After about a week of cold and snow, finally a nice warm sunny day. Still many crocus just starting to pop up out of the ground.
The crocus in the second picture is really blue in color, and I think it's Skyline. I really need a new camera. I only see one of this "Skyline" I took pollen from it and put it on all the Prince Klaus flowers that were opened. Third picture, crocus is Tricolor, not sure what the yellow one is. I had one Firefly flower open, so I put pollen from it onto all the open Tricolors. I didn't take a picture, but I have some tomassinianus roseus opened also, and I took some pollen and stuck it on some giants. I then took some pollen from a couple different giants and put it back on Roseus. Does Roseus produce seed?
