Description
Bursting forth in early spring, Crocus Vernus Mixed Colours offer a joyful mix of tones that brighten up the garden’s earliest moments. These miniature bulbs naturalize easily—plant generously so this color mix proliferates over seasons and forms little carpets of bloom. Low-growing and charming, they complement larger perennials that follow.

Manitoba Notes
In Manitoba’s cold winters (Zone 3–4), fall planting should occur early enough so corms establish before deep freeze. Choose a well-drained location—raised beds or sandy soil help. A light layer of mulch after frost protects through winter, but be sure to remove heavy mulch in spring to let shoots emerge. Expect blooms to pop through the melting snow—these little crocuses are tough!
