Notes

'Bowles' White' autumn crocus (Crocus sieberi 'Bowles' White') is a bulb. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). It blooms in late winter and early spring. The flowers are large, globular, and pure white. Each bloom has an orange throat that stands out against the white petals. Plant several bulbs together so the blooms make a bright patch.

Pairs well with Snowdrop, Picture tulip, and Bellwort.
