Be one of the first to welcome spring with the wonderful Crocus 'Vanguard'. True to its name, it is one of the earliest of the large-flowering crocuses to bloom, often appearing in February. It produces an abundance of beautiful, rounded flowers, with silvery-lilac outer petals that enclose a contrasting, deeper violet-blue interior, creating a lovely two-tone effect. It is a robust and reliable variety, perfect for creating swathes of early colour in lawns, under trees and shrubs, or at the front of borders where it will naturalise happily. For a classic early spring picture, combine it with the brilliant white of Galanthus Woronowii (Snowdrops) or the sunny faces of Narcissus 'Tête-à-Tête'. Now is the perfect time to plant for a beautiful display. Choose a spot with well-drained soil in full sun or light shade, planting the corms about 10cm deep and 10cm apart.
