DESCRIPTION
Colchicum bornmuelleri, also known as the autumn crocus, blooms in the fall, offering a beautiful burst of color when most other plants are fading. Its large, funnel-shaped flowers are a soft lavender-pink, with a delicate white throat that adds to their elegance. The flowers emerge from the ground before the leaves, creating a dramatic effect as they bloom amidst the late-season landscape.
Native to the mountainous regions of Turkey, Colchicum bornmuelleri is well-suited to rock gardens or woodland edges where its fall bloom can be appreciated. The foliage appears after the flowers have faded, providing a fresh green backdrop for the plant during the cooler months. This late-blooming beauty adds seasonal interest, thriving in well-drained, sunny spots and offering a unique pop of color to autumn garden beds.
