I get that crocuses are technically a corm...
Oh, man...who knew? If crocuses cannot be celebrated in Spring Bulb Week, it's a travesty. Those are the first, bulb-y harbingers of Spring coming up through the snow. Or so I'd always thought. Tricky little things masquerading as bulbs...even as I jammed them into the ground.
I'm drawing a line in the sand here, though. If crocuses are not included in Spring Bulb Week, I'm going on a posting-to-the-database hunger strike (with all that means...check the metrics in my profile and/or this post:
http://garden.org/thread/view_... if you don't think I'm serious...) until crocuses assume their (faux-)rightful place in the festivities...or until a concurrent Spring Corms Week is established (or, really, until I get a whole lot smarter about what lives in our gardens). This is a hill on which I'm ready to push up daisies!
Seriously, though..I had no idea. I always thought crocuses were bulbs. Old dog, new tricks, etc.
