    "If I could have only one crocus," the great Southern gardener Elizabeth Lawrence wrote, "it would be this." She praised it's "pearly" buds opening in January in Raleigh, it's golden throat, and its "delightful, strong, and musk-like" fragrance. And it's equally fine up North! Zones 4-7bS(8bWC)
