DESCRIPTION: Crocus vernus ‘Flower Record’ is a special cultivar of the Dutch spring crocus, celebrated for its large, cup-shaped flowers in a rich mauve-purple shade. These striking blooms stand out beautifully against bright orange stamens at the center. What makes this variety truly remarkable is its impressive flower size, as it belongs to the Crocus vernus group known for having some of the largest flowers among crocuses. Crocus vernus ‘Flower Record’ typically grows to a height of about 10 to 20 cm (4 to 8 inches). Not only does ‘Flower Record’ produce showy and vibrant flowers, but it is also a very vigorous and long-lasting plant. It naturalizes easily, returning year after year with abundant blooms. Its deep, intense color brightens up gardens early in the spring, often flowering between February and April, offering a welcome splash of color after the dull winter months. This crocus also spreads well over time, forming beautiful colonies that create an increasingly spectacular display. While there aren’t official records measuring flower sizes globally, this cultivar is widely recognized for its large and eye-catching blossoms. It’s worth noting that Crocus sativus, another well-known crocus species, is prized for producing saffron—the valuable spice harvested from its stigmas—but it is not known for large flowers. So, when gardeners talk about a “crocus flower record,” they’re most likely referring to Crocus vernus ‘Flower Record’ for its exceptional blooms that make any spring garden stand out.
