It is certainly a native of most of the forests and 
orchards of Transylvania, whence I have a wild specimen, 
named C. nudiflorus, collected by Dr. Baumgarten himself; 
according to Host it was found by the late Dr. Sadler on 
the outskirts of woods in various parts of Hungary. 
Mr. Strangways saw it cultivated at Naples, under the 
name of Crocus speciosus.
