Spring Flowering Crocus Tommasinianus Hummingbird
C2159
Description
Enchanting Crocus tommasinianus ‘Hummingbird’ produces upright goblets of soft lavender-blue during February and March each year.
One of the first Crocus to flower in late winter, this delightful new variety will illuminate spring gardens, adding a wash of subtle purple-blue hues to borders, rockeries and areas of open grass.
Brilliant for attracting pollinators who are drawn to the golden-yellow stamens within the pretty floral cups.
Plant the bulbs in large groups for a striking effect. Left undisturbed, the bulbs will naturalise easily in fertile well-drained soil, in a sunny spot in the garden.
