Crocus ‘Korolkowii’ is a striking and unusual early-spring crocus, admired for its bright golden-yellow petals often marked with fine bronze or maroon streaks on the outer surfaces. Native to Central Asia, this hardy species crocus brings a touch of the exotic to the garden while still being easy to grow and dependable. Flowering very early, it is perfect for rockeries, gravel gardens, borders, and containers, naturalising well over time to create glowing drifts of colour.
