How to Grow Crocus

Planting Crocus

  • Plant these bulbs in fall.
  • Plant them with the pointy end up in a sunny to semi-shaded area about 8 cm (3 in) deep and 5 to 8 cm (2 to 3 in) apart.
  • If you have trouble with gophers or squirrels eating your bulbs, try sprinkling red pepper in the holes, covering the bulbs with chicken-wire, surrounding bulbs with sharp shards of gravel or other substance, or planting rodent-repelling bulbs like Fritillaria nearby.
  • These bulbs do best in well-drained soil.

Growing Crocus

  • Because these bulbs flower so early, crocus adapt well to planting in lawns and will multiply over time to cover large areas.
  • These bulbs look good planted in groups at the base of trees or in wooded areas.
  • Plant in groups of twenty or more bulbs which then appear more natural.

Crocus Care

  • If bulbs are naturalized in lawns wait to mow until foliage has died back.
  • These bulbs get on well with other spring- blooming bulbs and can easily be layered with other bulbs to create a burst of colour.

Winterizing Crocus

  • These bulbs are great for naturalizing and almost require no care.
  • If your crocus seem to perform poorly, the most likely reason is over-watering in the summer. Crocus prefer their soil damper in the spring and fall, but dry and warm during the summer.

Holland

Holland is where the garden party never stops! Renowned for its rich horticultural tradition and expertise, Holland is a flower-power paradise. Synonymous with vibrant blooms and top-tier bulbs, 80% of the world’s bulb cultivation has roots in Holland. Before our bulbs set sail on their global adventure, we conduct meticulous checks for size and disease. So, gear up to cultivate Dutch flower charm in your own garden!
