Detail
Sometimes, all it takes is a single flower to feel that spring is on its way. The Golden Yellow crocus is one of the earliest bloomers of the year and immediately catches the eye with its bright yellow, cup-shaped flowers. Whilst the garden is still waking from its winter slumber, this organic crocus brings warmth and colour. At the same time, it provides an important early source of food for wild bees, bumblebee queens and other pollinators searching for nectar and pollen in early spring.
An organic crocus that returns every spring
Golden Yellow feels at home in almost any garden. Plant the organic crocus bulbs in the autumn in well-drained soil in a sunny or lightly shaded spot. They thrive in borders, on lawns, under trees or in pots on the patio. Under the right conditions, the bulbs will naturalise on their own, allowing you to enjoy an ever-more abundant bloom every spring. Thanks to their compact growth habit, they also combine easily with other early-flowering bulbs, such as snowdrops and botanical daffodils.
Good for wild pollinators and biodiversity
It is precisely in the first few weeks of spring that food is still scarce for pollinators. That’s why early-flowering crocuses such as Golden Yellow are so valuable. The open flowers make nectar and pollen easily accessible to bumblebees, wild bees and other insects that play a vital role in your garden’s biodiversity. By choosing 100% organically grown flower bulbs, you’re helping to create a natural garden where flowers, insects and soil life can thrive together.
Small in size, big on impact
With its bright yellow flowers, the Golden Yellow crocus instantly brings the garden to life. Plant the bulbs in a loose cluster for a natural effect, or let them naturalise in the lawn, where they’ll add a sunny touch every spring. This organic crocus also looks stunning in a pot on a balcony or terrace. A small flower bulb that signals the start of spring – just as nature intended.
