Saffron crocus (Crocus sativus) is a unique and valuable flower known for producing the world's most expensive spice, saffron. Each bulb produces vibrant purple flowers with striking red stigmas, which are carefully harvested and dried to create the saffron threads used in culinary dishes. Beyond its culinary value, the saffron crocus adds a touch of exotic beauty to gardens and landscapes.

The bulbs were very small
Of the 10 crocus about 7 sprouted. Not perfect but I'm happy to see that most of them did. I've been wanting saffron crocus for a long time.
Thanks.
I'm looking forward to seeing these every year! I've never had anything from Migardener fail.
These came packaged nicely and in great condition. I even ended up getting 13 instead of 10! Another great product from MIGardener.
These were priced ok but they were so much smaller than expected. The cloves off the garlic I buy are bigger than these bulbs. I planted them right away to hope it helps them survive.

Great fertilizer. Used for the first time last year for my fall bulbs and they were stunning and strong come spring. Planting another 250 bulbs this fall so came back for more bulb fertilizer. I also use the Trifecta. Can’t go wrong with any of Luke’s amendments.
Great germination and very prolific.
I grew this in a straw bale garden in 2025 and really enjoyed it. It grew amazingly well and was beautiful, so I purchased more for 2026. Michigan zone 6b.
I have grown these for the last few years and they are hands down my favorite. I like romas and firm tomatoes. These remind me of mini romas. These are less prone to splitting, super easy to harvest and has a super great flavor and very meaty. YUM!
The cloves are large, full and heavy. Of the two cloves I kept (shared 2 with my daughter), 12 were large enough to plant, 1 will be consumed.
