I made the mistake of planting Crocus vernus 'Pickwick' corms in a bulb lasagne without labelling the bulbs in the lasagne. I must have been gardening in a dream that day. Anyway, I managed to find the name of the below crocus by trawling through online orders and comparing images. Pickwick is a fabulous Dutch crocus with quite a large flower which makes it stand out in the crowd.

It grows in a large plastic pot of compost in a sunny position. I thought a bulb lasagne was a great idea until the plants started to grow and some of the crocuses in flower got buried under tulip leaves. I will remember later this year although I am thinking of sticking most of my spring bulbs in the borders for next spring.  |
