Re Scott Vergara's note.  My experience with seed of Crocus species is that 
they germinate very reliably in early spring after sowing, whether sown soon 
after they ripen or in the fall.  I keep the seed pans in the open throughout 
the winter, usually down to around 20oF intermittently and bring them under 
glass as soon as they germinate. I agree that In nature they mainly ripen 
early and get a hot summer, but I do not believe they need it to germinate.
