Saffron Crocus – Assorted pack sizes

Producing just 1 kilogram of saffron requires hand-harvesting the stigmas from nearly 250,000 crocus flowers, followed by meticulous drying and bottling – an incredibly labour-intensive process.

This charming little bulb features fine, grass-like foliage and stunning crocus flowers, each yielding three prized saffron threads. Harvest the precious threads and enjoy the fragrant purple blooms, whether planted in pots or en masse. Perfect for temperate climates, saffron thrives in dry summers and cool winters.
