Through the years I've tried just about everyone for bulbs but A.D.R. is tops. It's a family run business and the service levels and expertise are as good as the product they sell. My clients rave about the results we get with A.D.R. and that makes me happy.

Growing and Maintenance Tips for Crocus Large Flowering 'Mixture'

Planting: Plant corms in fall, 3 to 4 inches deep and 3 inches apart, with the pointed end facing up. Choose a well-drained site that receives full sun to partial shade.
Location: Ideal beneath deciduous trees, in borders, rock gardens, or naturalized in lawns—where they bloom before tree canopies leaf out.
Soil: Prefers moderately fertile, well-drained soil with a neutral pH (6.0–7.0). Amend heavy clay with compost or sand to improve drainage.
Watering: Water after planting and during active spring growth. Once dormant, they require little to no water.
Temperature: Hardy in USDA zones 3–8. No winter protection needed in most climates.
Fertilization: Apply compost or a balanced fertilizer in early spring as growth emerges. Avoid high-nitrogen feeds.
Pruning: Allow foliage to die back naturally after flowering to replenish the corm.
Propagation: Naturalizes easily by offsets. Divide clumps in summer when dormant if overcrowded.
Pest & Disease: Generally pest-free, though rodents may dig up corms. Deer-resistant. Avoid soggy soil to prevent rot.
