Crocus Pickwick
Striking silver-lilac petals striped with deep violet-purple make this classic large-flowering crocus a breathtaking herald of Spring. Rising early in the season, the goblet-shaped blooms feature bright orange stigmas that create a vivid contrast, opening wide on sunny days to welcome emerging pollinators. The narrow, strap-like dark green leaves feature a distinct silvery-white central stripe, maintaining a tidy carpet of foliage after the flowers fade. Perfect for naturalising in lawns, underplanting beneath deciduous trees, or massing in rockeries, borders, and patio containers for a dazzling Spring display.
