So difficult to help without a picture! I have posted on the wiki a
picture of a crocus that I grow which seems to fit your description.

It may be nothing like your plant BUT it is one that I have twice
received mislabelled as something else - a natural imposter!

Thanks, Tony, but what I have is nothing like this and I'm pretty sure it
is not C. vernus owing to the details of the style and stigma. Your plant
is interesting, though -- the kind of thing that makes me wonder about
viruses!

If I ever get it together to get a new computer and learn how to hook the
camera to it, I will start putting pictures on also, although with my slow
Internet connection I will not be doing much of it. I am going to send a
slide of the mystery crocus to John Lonsdale in hopes he can ID it.
