The Crocus 'Mixed Colors', 'Crocus species', is a fall planted bulb. The bright colors of the Crocus show up as soon as the snow has melted, announcing the coming of spring. These wonderful tiny Crocuses have more, but smaller, flowers than the Giant Crocus. The Mixed Colors Crocus blooms in early spring and has a 3 week bloom period.Crocuses perform best in a sandy, well drained soil. Crocus bulbs remaining in the ground will always bloom a bit earlier than the ones planted the previous year. For a massive effect, plant in great sweeps of 100 to 150 bulbs. Use them in rock gardens, ground covers, containers, mass plantings and borders.
