Known as ‘Cloth of Gold’, Crocus ‘Angustifolius’ is one of the oldest species of Crocus known, with records dating back to 1587.

Petals of brilliant deep orange-yellow are prominently marked with rich mahogany veins, creating a striking look when viewed up close, and when flowering as a sweeping golden carpet during February and March.

Native to Southern Ukraine and Armenia, Crocus ‘Angustifolius’ has been granted a prestigious Award of Garden Merit from the Royal Horticultural Society for its winning looks and excellent performance.  This short-stemmed beauty attracts a host of early pollinators when it blooms each spring, wonderful planted in large patches or ribbons and as part of an early spring container display.
