Add an intriguing sight to the early spring garden with the large, two-tone flowers of Crocus vernus 'Whale Shark.' Grey-blue petals with subtle mottling surround violet-blue inner petals. The darker petals are visible only when the sun shines. In the evening and on rainy days, the blossoms close, appearing as silvery highlights in the spring garden.
This variety is one of the familiar, and welcome, giant spring Crocus, which are colorful companions for early Daffodils. They are terrific for bedding, rock gardens, shrub borders, and naturalizing in grass. Reserve a few bulbs to pot up and force, and you will soon be the bearer of sweet little gifts that are inexpensive yet rich with the promise of winter’s end.
