Crocus vernus is by no means rare but can provide a marvellous display.  I posted a picture about a week ago but now it is at its best.

They look happy at the snug corner, Cyril :)

Great show of crocus.

They look happy at the snug corner, Cyril :)

Well protected from the weather.  I believe it is an old Dutch cultivar named 'Vanguard', selected by VanTubergen from Russian plants.  I don’t remember getting this plant but it has been in that spot for a very long time (as long as I can remember), possibly planted by the previous house owners, over 25 years ago!

Still unidentified beautiful crocus from W Turkey. May be new species. It is the first blooming with me, pictured two days ago when we had sun.

Crocus crewei from Honaz Dag - the first three came from Erich Pasche, second two are very different, got from Jim Archibald as "crewei with buff seeds" but regardless of name very beautiful.
