The bulb is sold loose, per piece. Spring-flowering crocus bulbs are planted in the fall, while autumn-flowering bulbs are planted in the spring. Plant the crocus bulbs at a depth of 5 centimeters and spaced 5-8 centimeters apart. Their pointed end should face upwards.

• Grow crocuses in sunny or partially shaded areas with well-drained soil.
• Avoid planting crocuses under evergreen trees due to their dense shade.
• Fertilizer at planting time is not necessary, but a little organic compost can help.
• Crocuses "sister" and you can separate them to prevent overcrowding.
• The best time to separate the bulbs is after flowering, when the foliage has yellowed and dried.

Growing crocuses requires attention to monitoring plant health for successful flowering. Make sure the leaves have completely yellowed before removing them, so the bulb has stored enough food for the next year.
