Re: Northern Blooms
Sheri,
I'm in Ft. Wayne. I planted saffron about 15 yrs ago and they bloomed
reliably in the fall for a few years, but eventually petered out. However,
there were still2 blooming this past year. I've planted them at the
extension office but they didn't come up. I assumed rodents got them.
Temps have been strange, it's possible the snow crocus have sent up some
shoots. But I haven't seen it here yet. Usually Feb or March.
