154 photos of Crocus side by side  :o

Before anyone asks I'm not adding individual names or links to the main images, sorry. The page is for your enjoyment and can only be seen via this post.

A few photos have gone missing during the upload so I'll sort them out now

Magnificent Mark. I know it must have been a hell of a lot of work putting the pics on the Site but can I plead with you to go the extra mile(s) and put names to them as this would provide a very useful resource for Forumists. I don't understand the technicalities involved but if help is needed, and is possible, then all you have to do is let me know.

Are you aware these prangers can now be custom ordered in hard dark chocolate. It is not even possible to nibble on the framework whilst locked in?   8)

 I know!  ;D :D :D ;D Messrs. Leonidas supplied a large box to me, via Arthur and Luc Gilgemyn, at the Discussion Weekend!......I have to tell you that Ian has nearly scoffed the lot.... I have had barely one third!  :o :(   I must be getting slow.... perhaps it is all the chocolate which is slowing me down..... that Bulb Despot moves like greased lightening when there's a gourmet morsel to be had!

Absolutely gorgeous, Mark.
So many different colours and markings, I can see why people want to collect them.
