Crocus tommasinianus 'Ruby Giant'

Despite the name, very small 🤪💜

I like the way these open out in the sun and close up again at night for a rest 😊💙

Morning Sue .. hard work being that beautiful 💜💜😂

Beautiful 💜💜💜

Such a lovely display 💜

I put them in for last year but it has taken until now for them to get established 💜 @juliesgarden @pelly @lilybee

so pretty

Love Ruby Giants, I think these are my favourite tommasinianus variety 💜

They were a surprise buy Rich from our local auction last year. A thousand tulips and two thousand Ruby Giants for £20. A never to be repeated bargain I think 😂 @richard.spicer.7906

Blimey, I’m not surprised! That’s a lot of bulbs to plant 😂

The sun has opened these today ☀️💜

They’re glowing 💜

Bought 2,000 crocus bulbs at our local auctions, but hiding underneath them 1,000 tulip bulbs. Just off to put a few in, I could be some time 😂🌷🌷🌷

Ooo lovely 🌷

Somebody’s going to be busy

3000 bulbs to plant 😲

On a par with your egg purchase Charlotte @charlotte 😂

🤣🤣🤣

Wow, Sue, good luck with that job! 😳👍😘

Just dig a big hole and throw them in…..😆👌🏼

I bet that's been a cold job 🥶🥶🥶

One of those things which seemed such a good idea at the time @flan1971 @nojo920 @jacaranda @wagsmomthompsonbtinternetcom @pelly but yes, it has been perishing cold, have made quite good headway with the crocuses though and sent our neighbour home with her pockets full 😂💟

I’m sure we’ll all be jealous when they’re flowering like a spring meadow 😉🌷🌷🌷

can't wait to see it in the spring! (Nobody would be upset if you put two in a hole....)
