Crocus field

The crocus flower has been a popular symbol in Greek culture. It is depicted on pottery, ancient coins, and on a crocus-shaped ribbon. The name crocus comes from the Greek word meaning "grain," and crocus flowers, referring to the flower, are the original ornamental flower of the tropics. In the late 1940s, crocus flowers became popular with people desiring an inexpensive way to decorate their home. These flowers were originally grown in the United States but now are cultivated all over the world; however, they are mainly popular in Central and South America.

Crocus flowers are fairly easy to grow, however, there are a few considerations to keep in mind if you want to plant them this year. Because this flower does not live beyond the winter, it is not normally sown during the winter. If you are planting the flower indoors, make sure that you use a cold frame, as this will create the same effect as your plant will not be exposed to the elements during the winter.

The last two varieties of this flower are: Stachys and versicolor. The name comes from the Latin "versus" meaning "over-wood." Stachys is a white-colored flower whose bloom resembles a white pine tree. The white petals of this species are elliptical in shape; the blooming period is in the late summer. Versicolor is a pure white flower whose blooms contrast dramatically with its gray-green foliage; the flowers open up just before the onset of fall.
