Het plantmateriaal zag er fris uit bij het openen. Het wortelgedeelte was vochtig zonder doorweekt te zijn. Het was iets kleins, maar ik merkte het meteen op.

Description
Crocus vernus "Vanguard" — an amazing large-flowered variety with unusual coloring: the buds have a white tint, and when opened they turn into delicate lilac flowers. Thanks to such a spectacular color transition, it is especially popular for growing in the garden, as well as in indoor pots, and is also often used for forcing by March 8th.
The plant forms compact flower stalks about 15 cm high, with a flower cup up to 5 cm. Flowering occurs in April and lasts approximately 10–15 days. Crocuses tolerate spring frosts and temperature changes well, remaining stable and reliable early spring plants.
For planting, it is better to choose well-warmed sunny areas with loose, drained soil of neutral reaction. The bulbs do not tolerate stagnant moisture, so it is important to avoid waterlogging. They are planted in early autumn, in still warm soil, to a depth of 5–15 cm. After planting, it is recommended to mulch the surface with fallen leaves, which will help the plants successfully overwinter.
Crocus Vanguard is versatile in use: it can be planted both in open ground for creating spring compositions, and in containers for home cultivation and forcing.

Ich habe zum ersten Mal hier bestellt und mich für Blumenzwiebeln entschieden. Die Website ist sehr übersichtlich und einfach zu bedienen, und die Lieferung ging wirklich schnell. Ich würde mich freuen, wenn das Sortiment an blühenden Sträuchern in Zukunft noch etwas größer wird. Ansonsten bin ich sehr zufrieden – alle…
