A sure sign that Spring is on the way, the Blue Pearl crocus has an iridescent blue outside and cream white inside. A golden eye adds a charming accent touch. These hardy little flowers pop up and open in early in the season, often through spring snows. A true favorite for everyone. Botanical Crocus bloom earlier and throw more flowers than their larger and more expensive cousins. These are the flowers the bloom through the snow! They are very reliable bulbs and multiply and naturalize easily. Plant in the lawn and you won't even notice the foliage (just don't mow too short before they're finished recharging). At this price you can load up on plenty! Zones: 4-8 Bloom time: Early Spring Bulb size: 5+ cm around Plant height: under 6 inches (15 cm)
