- Crocus Ruby Giant is a fully hardy clump forming small headed Spring flowering perennial loved by pollinating insects, in particular bees and butterflies and is one of the earlier flowering crocus varieties available. This lovely purple snow crocus will help chase the winter blues away, flowering between February and March growing up to a height of 10cm tall. Crocus Ruby Giant are popular for UK gardens, due to their ability to increase rapidly providing a bigger and better display each year.
- These bulbs are great for growing in flower beds, garden borders or in patio pots. They are also ideal for growing in woodland gardens or rock gardens in particular around the base of deciduous trees or shrubs. They do particularly well when planted with other Spring flowering bulbs such as daffodils, grape hyacinth and crocus. Crocus can also be used as cut flowers allowing you to enjoy them in your home and garden.
- If you are not ready to plant bulbs now, then store them in a cool, dry, frost free, well ventilated location. A garage, shed, loft or cupboard are ideal. Open the paper bag to allow air to circulate round but leave the bulbs in their bags until ready to plant. Just make sure mice or other rodents can’t get access to them. Keep an eye on your bulbs while in storage, if they are showing signs of going soft, it's best to get them planted before they deteriorate any further.
