  This is one of the things that attracts me to Crocus- the number of flowers you get  over a period - I may be greedy, but I LOVE that!

Don't we all Maggi... don't we all !!  :D

Yes Maggi, very true!  This is the same Crocus graveolens RIGA 115 now, 27 days after I posted the picture of the first flower (Reply 67, Crocus Jan 2014), with so many more flowers, and all this from one bulb only.

Two Crocus veluchensis pics (the top one is a first flowering of some seedlings) and their close relative. Crocus cvijicii.

Wow!!!
I didn't realise they were capable of producing this many flowers!

I planted one corm of Crocus sieberi 'Ronald Ginns'.  Two flowers are open now but I counted 8 flowering shoots so it should look good soon and hopefully many corms for next year.

The flower power of some of these crocus is truly amazing.
