A wonderful mix of lavender petals with delicate creamy white streaks, Crocus ‘Striped Bird’ bulbs produce wonderful and effortless floral displays. Plant these bulbs to enjoy swathes of spring colour that returns year after year. Enjoy as each lavender petal opens to dark purple shades at its centre, to create a wonderful contrast of colours to admire.
Perfect for scattering through a lawn, growing as ground cover in a flower bed, blending with other flowering blooms in a wildlife garden, or planting in pot to admire up close positioned next to a seating area, these flowers will not disappoint. They can also be used to add colour and interest to partially shady areas and awkward garden spaces.
In addition to the delightful low-level flowers, the blooms are a great way to attract wildlife into your garden. They are also loved by bees, butterflies and a wide range of pollinators.
To get the best floral display from your Crocus ‘Striped Bird’ bulbs, plant them in soil with good drainage. This unfussy Crocus will happily flourish in any position of full sunlight or partial shade.
