Not all crocuses flower in the spring - some have evolved to bloom when the autumn rains come after a summer baking. This one is from Turkey and endangered in the wild as unscrupulous collectors dig it up.

Have considered it but a bit pricey if it does not increase well. Will watch with interest to see if next year yours has multiplied,
You are fortunate not to be plagued with Squirrel
It would not last a week outside here.
