WHITE SNOW CROCUS, FALL PLANTING BULBS

Pure white with bronze base. Crocus Chrysanthus Ard Schenk is early flowering with usually more than one flower per bulb, the flowers sparkle in the sun bringing the winter garden to light, these lovely crocus may be smaller than their larger Dutch cousins what they lack in size they will make up for in flower power.

When the weather’s dull and Crocus sieberi 'Tricolor' refuses to open her flower, the closed bloom will still provide a touch of sunshine from its sunny yellow-orange tubular base
