Notes
'Grand Maitre' autumn crocus (Crocus 'Grand Maitre') is a bulb. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full or part sun. It blooms in early to late spring with lavender-violet flowers that have paler edges and orange anthers. You can plant it in a lawn, but hold off on mowing as long as you can so the bulbs build energy for next year.
Pairs well with Snowdrop, Grape hyacinth, and Orange lily.
