About Crocus Pickwick Bulbs and Flowers
Crocus Pickwick is a petite, early-blooming bulbous plant that belongs to the Iris family. Its botanical name, Crocus vernus 'Pickwick,' gives a hint of its stunning appearance. These lovely crocuses are known for their distinctive lavender-blue petals adorned with striking, dark purple stripes. The contrast between the delicate colors and bold stripes creates a captivating visual display that is simply breathtaking.
How to plant Crocus Pickwick?
Plant your Crocus Pickwick in potting mix with the top third of the bulb sticking up out of the soil. Place the pot near a bright window, where it can receive a lot of sunlight. When the bulb sprouts, begin watering regularly around the bulb. After sprouting, turn the pot regularly, because stalks will grow toward the sunlight.
Flowering Period
One of the most remarkable features of Crocus Pickwick is its early flowering period. These beauties burst into bloom just as winter's chill begins to wane, heralding the arrival of spring. In most regions, you can expect to see their stunning blossoms as early as late winter to early spring, often appearing when there's still a hint of snow on the ground.

How to Plant - Crocus Pickwick
Guide and tips for planting Iris Perennials Bare-Root Plants
-
Prepare the soil: Iris plants prefer well-drained soil with a pH level of 6.0 to 7.0. Amend the soil with compost or organic matter to improve the soil's fertility and drainage.
-
Choose the planting location: Select a spot that receives at least 6 hours of direct sunlight per day. Avoid planting in areas with standing water or where the soil remains soggy after rainfall.
-
Dig a hole: Dig a hole deep enough to accommodate the roots of the plant. The hole should be shallow, only about 4 cm deep, and wide enough to spread the roots out.
-
Place the bare-root plant in the hole: Gently spread the roots out and place the plant in the hole. The top of the rhizome, the thickened root-like stem, should be visible above the soil surface. Backfill the hole with soil and press down firmly to eliminate air pockets.
-
Water the plant: Give the plant a thorough watering after planting to settle the soil around the roots. Continue to water the plant regularly to keep the soil evenly moist until the plant becomes established.
-
Mulch the plant: Add a layer of organic mulch around the plant to help retain moisture and suppress weed growth. Keep the mulch a few inches away from the base of the plant to prevent rot.
-
Monitor the plant: Keep an eye on the plant's growth and water it regularly as needed. Iris plants generally bloom in late spring to early summer and benefit from occasional fertilization throughout the growing season.
