Hi Jim From what I have been told deformed Crocus zonatus/kotschyanus are from Dutch stock. I have a photo on my web site http://marksgardenplants.com/crocus%20kotschyanus%… http://www.marksgardenplants.com/crocus.htm Mark N Ireland Also in bloom, if you can call it that, is that very annoying form of Crocus kotschyanus which produces deformed flowers of a pale gray-white. Over the years (and it's been around for decades: don't the growers ever look at these things when they bloom?) I've bought this as Crocus zonatus and C. zonatus albus. -- I am using the free version of SPAMfighter. We are a community of 6 million users fighting spam.
