Crocus tommasinianus
'Whitewell Purple'

With lavender star shaped flowers and deep yellow stamens, the ‘Whitewell Purple’ flowers in late February and March.

20,000 bulbs are planted on the banks of the Slips leading down to the Water Garden, providing a blaze of unbridled colour during early spring.
