You'd have to destroy that beauty though, if it did produce the right stamen.
Don't think I could do it. Lol.

oh no I wouldn't. I have saffron ones else where in the garden. :o)

Please, tell me they're plain, even dowdy blooms. :-\

no they are slim with a purple flower.

Last time I cook with saffron, then...now, where DID I put that turmeric? Lol.
