White Autumn crocus in flower....potfull of bulbs.
This lovely little white crocus flowers at this time of the year , in late Summer or after a rainfall.
Name: Zephyvanthes sp.
They grow in sun or part shade.
The plant for sale is growing in a 15cm pot and has one flower on it at present. It has been growing in this pot for a number of years so there should be quite a lot of bulbs under the soil.
Grasslike foliage which grows about 20cms high.
The flower has 6 bright white petals with a yellow centre.
Sorry I don't seem to be able to find better photos of the plant in flower. They're in my computer somewhere.
It does well in pots and in the ground too . Dies back in winter.
Its the sort of little flower that surprises you and makes you smile.
Thanks for looking.

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
