Planting instructions
Choose a sunny or partially shaded spot in your garden. Plant crocus bulbs in the fall, about 2-3 inches (5-7.5 cm) deep and 3-4 inches (7.5-10 cm) apart. Make sure the pointy end of the bulb faces up. Water the area well after planting to help the bulbs settle in. When planting in containers, select a container with drainage holes at the bottom. Fill the container with a well-draining potting mix. Plant crocus bulbs about 2-3 inches (5-7.5 cm) deep and space them 2-3 inches (5-7.5 cm) apart. Ensure the bulbs are positioned with the pointed end up. Water thoroughly after planting.
Growing Requirements
Pests
Crocus bulbs are generally pest and disease-resistant. However, watch out for squirrels or rodents that may dig up the bulbs. You can cover the planted area with a wire mesh or use squirrel repellents.
soil
Crocus bulbs prefer well-draining soil. You can add some sand or compost to improve drainage if your soil is heavy or clayey.
spot
Find a spot that receives plenty of sunlight in early spring but is shaded or gets less sun as the weather warms up. This mimics their natural habitat.
temperature
Crocus flowers thrive in cool to cold temperatures. They can withstand frost and even bloom through light snow.
watering
Water your crocus bulbs after planting and keep the soil slightly moist but not waterlogged during their growing season. Reduce watering after they finish blooming.
how to harvest
When your crocus flowers are in full bloom, gently snip the flowers with clean scissors or shears. Leave some leaves on the plant to allow it to store energy for next year. Arrange the blooms in a vase with fresh water and enjoy your beautiful bouquet!
