Dear Croconuts,

Here in Belgium we had last month a lot of rain; many crocuses are now flowering, but due the dull weather it’s impossible to post some brightly pictures :(
In my greenhouse flowers now the first juno, a wonderful  form of Iris persica (see section Iris). ;D
They expected today better weather, but unfortunately that’s not the case. The dull weather gives me the time to read through the new catalogue of Janis Ruksans that I received this morning.
And yes, one’s again a wonderful list of bulbs! Top of the bill is a new juno species, but there are many more new items of course, also crocuses
You can ask him copy by e-mail:

Great Crocus everyone - they are well ahead of ours as we have only one in flower at the moment.

Three completely out of season a good three months early.

Crocus pelistericus
Crocus scardicus
Crocus x gothenburgensis , this is C. scardicus x C. pelistericus and apart from being slightly lighter than its seed parent is almost identical.

Well Tony you must be in the banana belt up there. My pelistericus is showing at ground level and has been for some weeks now but there are no signs of its intention to do anything soon. That scardicus and gothenburgensis  just beautiful 8) 8)  8)

Here I was surprised by these this morning

Ian

all the rest of the pelistericus and the hybrids are like yours just showing,these three seem to have gone it alone.

In the greenhouse I have lots of different species in bud but we have no sun and they will never open ,just elongate and fall over. It is a rotten season so far,yes warm but constant rain and no light.
