YouGarden Crocus Sativus Planting Bulb 40 Pack

Enjoy the unique experience of growing your own saffron with these Crocus sativus bulbs, a delightful addition to any garden. These bulbs allow you to cultivate your own edible saffron spice directly from your garden in flowerbeds, containers, or raised planters. Each autumn bloom reveals vibrant red saffron strands, easily harvested, dried, and used in cooking or herbal teas.
These saffron crocuses are remarkably easy to grow, thriving in a sunny, well-drained location. Perfect for patio containers or sunny spots in the border, they provide a burst of welcome colour and fragrance in autumn, at an unexpected time. Hardy and reliable, these bulbs will naturalise and multiply year after year, increasing your harvest.
Whether planted in a pot or scattered through a sunny border, they complement autumn companions like nerines, cyclamen, and ornamental grasses beautifully. Simply plant the bulbs in late summer or early autumn, water them well, and await the spectacle. The saffron is ready for harvest as soon as the flowers open. Dry it at home to create your own homegrown spice, a rewarding and incredibly satisfying experience, worth every second. Supplied as a set of 40 bulbs.
