Crocus Barr’s Purple is a charming early-spring variety that produces vibrant purple flowers with contrasting golden-orange stamens. Flowering in February and March, this low-growing crocus reaches just 8cm in height, making it ideal for borders, rockeries, lawn naturalising, or container planting.
