Purple explosion

One moment there's nothing to be seen, the next your garden is full of colour and warmth! The large-flowered crocus mix 'Flower Record' (Crocus) is a purple explosion. The crocuses have even more impact if they are planted in large swathes. Plant the tubers in the autumn. In well-drained soil. The flowers bloom in the spring.
The tubers can be planted in open ground or in a pot. Potted tubers aren't frost hardy, so bring the pot indoors or protect the plant with bubble wrap. Space the tubers out when planting in open ground. The distance between plants is three times the width of the tuber. Plant the tuber the depth of three times the tuber's height. Plant the tubers in full sun or partial shade. Water the tuber immediately after planting. Don't water it until the soil feels dry to the touch. The flower bulbs come in plant-based, organic packaging. Made of 100% natural, plant-based materials and 100% recyclable!
All of our flower bulbs have the Holland Selection A quality mark, and come with a 100% guarantee that they will grow and bloom. You can be certain that the flower bulbs will grow.

Planting+

Plant the large-flowered crocus ‘Flower Record’ as soon as possible after receipt, in the garden or in pots and planters. Plant in a hole 3 times deeper than the height of the bulb - a 2 cm bulb goes in a 6 cm hole with a planting distance of about 2 cm.

Loosen the soil well with a fork and plant the crocus with the point upwards. Refill the planting hole and avoid walking over the soil. For larger groups, dig a wider hole and plant more bulbs together.

Large-flowered crocus ‘Flower Record’ will thrive in well-drained soil – and the more the merrier really. Try groups of at least 25 - or even 25-50 spread evenly over the bed, border, or lawn.

Large-flowered crocus ‘Flower Record’ in pots

Large-flowered crocus ‘Flower Record’ will thrive in pots or window-boxes too. Always make sure you have a layer of gravel in the base and always use fresh potting compost. Protect your bulbs from frost – store frost-free or wrap in bubble wrap. Water in dry periods.

Care+
