Crocus 'Prins Claus'

'Prins Claus' and 'Ladykiller' are very similar. I grow the former, which has tepals that are rather rounded at the tip and a purple smudge on the reverse. 'Ladykiller' has more pointed petals and the feathering on the reverse of the tepals is darker and more precisely defined.

A new group of bulbs, given to me last autumn and performing very well. Raised originlly by C. M. Berbee in 1959.
