Crocus Lageniflorus Subvar. Concolor

Blue crocus, scientifically known as Crocus lageniflorus subvar. concolor, is a striking early spring bloomer that captivates with its deep blue petals. Native to the mountainous regions of the Mediterranean, this delicate plant thrives in cool, well-drained soils and partial shade. Its flowers, which appear before the leaves, are not only beautiful but also attract pollinators like bees and butterflies. Despite its modest size, the blue crocus holds cultural significance in many regions, often symbolizing hope and renewal. With its vibrant color and resilience, it remains a cherished addition to gardens and natural landscapes.
