About John Scheepers

Crocus

There is nothing better after a long winter than to see the first crocus poking their heads through the soil. A terrific naturalizer, crocus may be planted en masse in lawns (that do not need early mowing), in rock gardens and as colorful drifts in early garden beds. The Species Crocus bloom about two weeks before the Large Flowering Crocus vernus and flavus varieties depending on weather conditions. Top size bulbs. Height: 4" to 5". Bloom time: Late March/April. Plant 4" to 5" deep and 3" to 4" apart. Horticultural zones 4-8.
