Growing and Maintenance Tips for Crocus Large Flowering 'Flower Record'

Planting: Plant corms in fall, 3 to 4 inches deep and 3 inches apart, with the pointed end facing up. Choose a well-drained site that receives full sun to partial shade.
Location: Ideal beneath deciduous trees, in borders, rock gardens, or naturalized in lawns—where they bloom before tree canopies leaf out.
Soil: Prefers moderately fertile, well-drained soil with a neutral pH (6.0–7.0). Amend heavy clay with compost or sand to improve drainage.
Watering: Water after planting and during active spring growth. Once dormant, they require little to no water.
Temperature: Hardy in USDA zones 3–8. No winter protection needed in most climates.
Fertilization: Apply compost or a balanced fertilizer in early spring as growth emerges. Avoid high-nitrogen feeds.
Pruning: Allow foliage to die back naturally after flowering to replenish the corm.
Propagation: Naturalizes easily by offsets. Divide clumps in summer when dormant if overcrowded.
Pest & Disease: Generally pest-free, though rodents may dig up corms. Deer-resistant. Avoid soggy soil to prevent rot.
