Iridaceae, having common name(s) associated with the genus; Snow Crocus.
Selected by J. R. from wild source material from the Samarkand Range, Uzbekistan. Large globular shining celandine-yellow flowers with only a few purple feathers at the base, therefore much brighter colored and probably more attractive than the type. One of the first to start flowering in late winter, often through snow. Very free-flowering. Ht. 2.5-3.5 inches. ---This item is now only offered as a fall 2009 Pre-Order or Wish Order ---
