Description
Crocus ‘Queen Bee’ is an eye-catching early spring crocus with colours that live up to its name. The flowers open in soft lilac purple with creamy yellow edges and a warm golden centre that catches the light beautifully. It brings a gentle but striking splash of colour to the garden when very little else is flowering.
This compact crocus is perfect for borders, lawns, rock gardens and pots. It naturalises easily, forming bigger clumps each year, and its nectar-rich blooms are a welcome sight for early bees. Simple to grow and very dependable, ‘Queen Bee’ is a lovely way to welcome the first days of spring.
