Notes
'Gipsy Girl' snow crocus (Crocus chrysanthus 'Gipsy Girl') is a bulb for borders, containers, and low maintenance gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes full or part sun, average moisture, and most soil types. Yellow flowers open from early to late spring. It is not a favorite of deer, though hungry deer will eat almost anything. Bees visit the blooms.
Pairs well with Common snowdrop, Grape hyacinth, and Black Hero tulip.
