Seed Story

Native to Corsica, Sardinia, and parts of Italy, Crocus minimus is one of the lesser-known wild crocuses – and among the very first to flower.

First described in the late 18th century, it’s long been loved for its elegant, understated detail.

With its fine, grass-like foliage and delicate striping, minimus brings interest to late winter planting schemes.

A true species crocus, it settles in easily and comes back each year, full of energy. Allow it to naturalise, and you’ll be rewarded for seasons to come.
