How to fertilize Danford Crocus
Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Danford Crocus after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

First time for me caring for spring corcus. The weather here is turning cold. Should I bring my corcus indoors or does it withstand the cold. Thoughts please🙏 #SpringCrocus
