Spring-Howering CYOCUS Species 
Spring-Flowering Crocus Species open their flowers even before 
the large flowered Dutch varieties. They usually flower in March 
and April but some will rashly appear even during February should 
there be warm, thawing spells of weather. Thus we can easily 
lengthen our gardening year by planting several of these early 
species. 
They need a well-drained position in full sun and should be 
planted 2 to 3 inches deep. As they increase and self-sow freely, they 
are splendid for naturalizing. Especially recommended for this are 
Susianus and Tomasinianus.
