Description

Crocus sieberi Tricolor is a striking early crocus with a tiered colour structure: pale lilac petals, a clean white mid-band, and rich golden-yellow throats. Flowering in February to early March, it’s a standout species-type crocus for naturalising in sunny, well-drained spots across Ireland.

Its compact habit makes it perfect for rock gardens, alpine borders, or tucked into gravel paths and dry stone edges. When massed, it delivers a vibrant tricolour tapestry that brightens dull spring corners. Combine with Iris reticulata Harmony, Chionodoxa luciliae, or Scilla mischtschenkoana for a staggered, wildlife-friendly display.
