Fairy autumn crocus

Notes

'Fairy' autumn crocus (Crocus biflorus 'Fairy') is a bulb for borders, containers, and rock gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes full or part sun. The flowers have ivory white inner petals and pewter purple outer ones. They open in early to late spring. You can also plant it in a lawn, but hold off on mowing as long as you can so the bulbs build up energy for next year.

Pairs well with Picture tulip, Cheerfulness daffodil, and Sedge.
