a speciosus maybe, but a very nice intense blue speciosus. Mine tend to veer towards violet shades or deep blue, not as intense blue as yours. If you ever have any spare i could swap you some of my speciosus types...or perhaps find you some clusii if i come across any...:)
Pontas i have spare,so lets swap when the times right  ;)

Armin, this Crocus is fertile. You find flowers from F2 crosses last autumn in our forum.
Dirk,
thanks I found the image.
Interesting sample of heritance how F2 generation splits off and appearance changes compared to F1 gen.

One of two 'forms?' that I grow. This one wasn't even showing three days ago. A little sun today and here it is. The second 'form' flowered on 28th October last year. Its just beginning to emerge now.

Franz,
what a beautiful clump of C. goulimyi surrounded by cyclamen leaves 8)
 
All my Crocus goulimyi and most of my young Cyclamen coum stock are victims from February black frosts. :'(
Today I spotted a single shot of C. speciosus in my meadow and surprisingly 4 leaves of cyclamen plus a couple of tiny seedlings :D.
Feels like having a lucky escape ;D

Ron,
C. mathewii is one of my favourites! A fabulous crocus species.
