Remembrance Giant Crocus Bulbs | Royal Purple Spring Flowers

Royal-Purple Flowers to Welcome Spring

Remembrance giant crocus (Crocus vernus 'Remembrance') produces large, goblet-shaped flowers with rich royal-purple petals and bright yellow anthers. This Dutch crocus brings a bold splash of color to borders, containers, and suitable lawn plantings as the garden wakes from winter.

Plant clusters beside a walkway or near your front door so you can enjoy the silky-looking petals up close. A group of purple flowers against the early-season landscape makes a cheerful start to spring.

What You Are Ordering

• Product: Crocus corms for planting, commonly sold as bulbs; not seeds or flowering potted plants.
• Variety: Remembrance Dutch giant crocus.
• Pack options: Choose 10, 25, or 100 corms. The size selector labels these packs as bulbs.
• Corm grading: 8/9 cm, a corm-size measurement rather than flower diameter.
• Flower color: Royal purple with yellow anthers.
• Bloom season: Early spring; exact dates depend on climate and seasonal weather.
• Listed hardiness: USDA zones 3–8.

Fall Planting

Choose full sun to partial shade and well-drained soil. Plant in fall before the ground freezes, with the pointed tips facing upward.

• Depth: Approximately 2–3 inches, following any instructions supplied with the corms.
• Spacing: Approximately 2–3 inches apart.
• Layout: Plant in clusters rather than single rows for a fuller-looking display.
• Water: Water after planting to settle the soil. Avoid persistently wet conditions.
• Containers: Use pots with drainage holes and protect them appropriately for your winter conditions.

After Flowering and Naturalizing

Leave the leaves intact until they yellow and die back naturally so the corms can replenish their reserves. If planting in a lawn, delay mowing that area until the foliage has finished.

Corms may return and gradually multiply where growing conditions are suitable. Repeat flowering and spreading depend on drainage, climate, and care rather than being guaranteed. Squirrels and other small mammals may dig up corms, so protect new plantings where needed.

Ornamental Use Only

This is a spring-flowering ornamental crocus, not saffron crocus. Do not harvest it for saffron or eat the corms or other plant parts. Keep planting stock away from children and pets.
