Why we like this plant
Crocus 'Dorothy' captivates with its sunny disposition and vivid colour, perfect for lifting the spirits after winter’s quietude. Its cheerful blooms create a welcoming glow in mixed plantings and pair beautifully with softer pastels or deeper purples. Ideal for drifts or clustered plantings, it brings a lively note of optimism to the first days of spring.
Planting guide
Plant corms in autumn, 7 to 10 cm deep and 5 to 7 cm apart, in well-drained soil with full sun or partial shade.
Care tips
Allow the foliage to die back naturally after flowering to nourish the corm for the following season. Divide clumps every few years to maintain vigour and prevent overcrowding.
