Dropping like flies!


Dropping like flies! (Crocus vernus)

I bought these a couple of weeks ago. They sat in their containers until I could decide where to plant them. They went in the ground on Thursday and battered by the rain last night and the winds today - they were falling before my very eyes:(

Yes, I had same with my crocus white well purple. They were about a month late, and then killed off by the cold before they had a chance to shine. These are very pretty though Scottish, love white ones!
