Here in Northern California, blooming or have bloomed:
Crocus goulimyi

Dear Mary Sue,
When I lived in a more protected inner city garden, I grew C.
goulimyi for a few years. I love the exquisite shape of the flower in
side view. Like a champagne goblet and that color is great. The wiki
pix just don't do this justice

I wish it were just a bit hardier. I love it. Enjoy
yours. Jim
