Pictures: 27 Oct 2018

JJA 347.908 Crocus mathewii
Turkey, Antalya, SWof Elmali. 1000m. Open hillsides in very stony terra rossa. P.& P.Watt coll. (A lilac, autumn-flowering, SW Turkish saffron Crocus distinguished in the type-description mainly by its rich, deepviolet throat, though in most sites many plants lack this essential characteristic. In this site, investigated by Peter and Penny Watt when the plants were in flower, all have intense purple throats extending to about one-third of the tepals.)

This picture was taken yesterday, on 1st Nov. 2012. It’s the first flower of this seedling :)

I obtained 1pkt of seeds (5 seeds) from the 2007 Nov. seedlist and received Feb. 2008 and sowed immediately. The seeds germinated 100% Nov. 2008 but unfortunately the seedlings gradually disapeared year by year, and only 2 individuals are surviving now.

354.706 : CROCUS VITELLINUS*
Lebanon, M'tein. 875m. Ex R. & R. Wallis 99-26. (In Turkey, this is spring-flowering & not to easy to distinguish from the allied C. graveolens. The seldom-seen Lebanese race flowers from late autumn into mid-winter & is most distinct with deep orange-yellow, sweet-scented flowers. Its flowers need protection under glass in the UK.)

The seedlings have put white flowers from 2012. An orange flower that matches the description on JJA seed list for the first time this year. Probably the seeds were mixed with some white crocuses.
