"Striped Bird" is a striking variety of snow crocus (Crocus tommasinianus) known for its unique appearance and early bloom time. The chalice-shaped flowers are a soft violet or pale purple, with each petal intricately striped with creamy white and deeper purple veins. This delicate, feather-like pattern gives the flower its distinctive name. Easy to grow in well-drained soil in full sun to partial shade. They are extremely hardy, and will even bloom during a snowstorm. Plant these bulbs in the fall for spring blooms!
