Crocus laevigatus in wet/hot summer areas

Steve, I grew mine in the sandhills of Florida, SW of Gainesville where
freezing temps were not uncommon. 1994 they bloomed well, 1st yr. 2nd yr
2/10 flowered, 3rd 2/10 came up the next we left to move in town, but none
even seemed to remain. I can see how one becomes smitten by these. Raise
your beds if you do.

Can anyone tell me about my chances of success with this plant here in the
hot and wet SE USA. I have placed it in my "dry" garden with the best
drainage I can provide it. It has already put out its first bloom for me.
I just want to see it again next year bigger and better. I'm also
considering planting much more of it in less ideal locations.
Steve
