Crocus Cream Beauty is a delightful early flowering crocus producing soft creamy-yellow blooms with warm apricot-orange centres. Flowering from February to March and reaching approximately 8cm in height, this elegant variety is lightly fragrant and brings subtle colour and perfume to the garden at the end of winter. Its early blooms also provide an important source of nectar for bees and other pollinating insects.

Ideal for planting in borders, rockeries, woodland gardens, lawns and containers, Crocus Cream Beauty is excellent for naturalising. Left undisturbed, the corms will gradually multiply to create beautiful drifts of creamy flowers that return each spring, making this variety perfect for natural-style planting and early seasonal displays.

Aftercare
Allow the foliage to die back naturally after flowering so the corms can replenish their energy for the following season. If planted in grass, avoid mowing until the leaves have completely yellowed. Leave the corms undisturbed to encourage naturalising and enjoy larger displays of fragrant blooms each spring.
