Lovely compact plants YT!!!
I wish I could keep my michelsonii as compact and neat as this!
You should move to Gibraltar or Northern Morocco, Steve ;D Their latitude are almost same as my place.

Crocus biflorus ssp. alexandrii - one of my favorites
Me, too, ruben! Its white margined dark purple exterior is so cute :)

It is flowering here to Tatsuo.... ;D
Kris, that is the flowering size bulb ;) Naturally very small ;D

YT, I'm very envious of the compact habit of your michelsonii. Light levels being what they are in my greenhouse, every single year it invariably etiolates and flops over, to the point I'm thinking of giving them away (maybe)  >:(

Thank you, Otto and Luc :) I'm lucky growing crocus on outside bench for keeping them in compact.
