Crocus Queen Bee is a striking early flowering crocus selected for its unique and unusual colouring. Its rich golden-yellow flowers are beautifully edged and flushed with deep bronze-purple on the outer petals, creating a dramatic contrast that brightens the garden from February to March. Reaching just 10cm in height, this compact variety is perfect for rockeries, borders, containers and naturalising in lawns.

Part of the Select from Taylor's collection, Crocus Queen Bee has been chosen for its exceptional colour and reliable garden performance. One of the earliest bulbs to flower, it provides an important source of nectar for bees and other early pollinators while adding vibrant colour to the late winter garden.
