A couple of Crocus cancellatus, a nice gift from a forumist.
The single is a beauty and certainly C cancellatus.  The pair of flowers have me puzzling ... if I did not know what they are I would say Crocus speciosus but as I say in the Crocus lecture, flowers alone are not the best way of telling the taxa apart.

An ominously slow start to my Crocus season with just cancellatus ssp cancellatus in flower and nothing else showing at all although I gave them their first watering some two weeks later than normal this year.

Only some metre from this place, the greatest enemy for Crocusses.
I see you are using the same trap as I do
After trying a lot of things I have found this to be the best way to get rid of them.
Tallyho ;D ;D
