No. I have amaryllis.
These are mauve/lilac.

cold it be an autumn crocus?

impressions, Mar 16, 8:15pm

Was wondering that, however it has a huge flower for a crocus. A tad smaller than a tulip.

Done some research, I think you are right. Thanks.

I've only got the yellow one, but I love it (I love all bulbs actually, but it's great to have them at this time of year)

Autumn crocus, all flowers, no leaves. Colchicum

Here's my yellow ones, about 6 inches high and some leaves showing

Mine would be 6" to 8" high and are definitely Colchium. They grow far bigger than spring crocus.
