When to Plant Crocus Bulbs

Crocuses are autumn-planting flower bulbs, ideally planted from September to November, before the ground hardens with frost. Crocuses need a cold period to bloom successfully, so planting before winter gives them the cold they need for the best results. Once in the ground, they remain dormant until late winter, when their shoots emerge to signal the first signs of spring. Plant them with daffodil bulbs for even more early colour.

How to Grow Crocus Bulbs

Plant crocus bulbs around 8-10cm (3-4in) deep and spaced 5-8cm (2-3in) apart in soil that drains well. Position them with the pointed tip facing upward. Choose a well-drained spot with full sun or partial shade, and if planting in heavy soil, add grit or sand to improve drainage. Water lightly after planting, but avoid waterlogged conditions, which can cause rot. Crocuses naturalise well, so they can be left undisturbed to multiply year after year. In pots, use free-draining compost and raise containers off the ground to prevent excess moisture. After flowering, allow the foliage to die back naturally to replenish the bulbs for the following season.
