It's happening here in the garden.  Just a little wait for the potted crocus which have only just been repotted and await the first soaking.

Crocus kotschyanus appeared suddenly, almost overnight.
Crocus serotinus was pictured on yesterday ... today there are two flowers!

Still in flower with me, CC. minimus, m. 'Bavella,' kosaninii, olivieri ssp balansae (seedlings from TH) ssp. balansae 'Chocolate Soldier,' and a few late chrysanthus vars, as well as late vernus forms including 'Yalta' and 'Vanguard.' All are nearly done except 'Bavella' which is about at its peak right now. Taken at different times of the day.

Yes Maggi, it`s a bliss only a few days before the autumn galanthus.
Thank you Luc, Udo, Tony, Wim for the wonderful gallery.
I have to settle for some Crocus banaticus.

Great crocuses everyone!
By the way I thought C. abantensis was a spring flowering crocus but apparently I am wrong
