Nice pictures Luc, especially the sequence of Crocus karduchorum.
I have many Crocus speciosus in my lawn or meadow and they are spreading everywhere. Unfortunately also bulbs and seed received as other species have turned out to be Crocus speciosus.
Morning Sokol, unfortunately it often happens that you get C. speciosus instead of your ordered species, but it depends on the source from which you got your plants..... gardencenters often contain wrong corms and also wholesale dealers are no more reliable, but there are still many small, private dealers from which you can buy good and true plants.Re C. karduchorum: Most plants in trade are not flowering, and if flowering not true but C. kotschyanus leucopharynx... this mistake is known for decades, but still valid. The true karduchorum is a very rare plant and only available from special dealers or from seed exchanges.
