Features

notes

Notable for its large, goblet shaped, lilac blue flowers, Crocus Etruscus Zwanenburg will happily naturalise if left undisturbed. The outer petals have a silvery sheen and are marked with fine, purple veining 

Insights

A perfect addition to the rock garden or front of the border, planted en masse, this crocus will add a carpet of colour under trees or taller shrubs. A great plant for attracting pollinators to the garden.
