Crocus saffron bulbs growing in my fall garden. Little bulbs, a little more than 1" in size came in a bag, in the mail from Renee's Garden. In my garden, most all plants, including veggies and herbs, are grown in pots and planters. It was a surprise to see how quickly these bulbs sprouted and produced flowers. Harvesting the delicate red/orange stamens (saffron) is easy enough. It will take a good number of flowers to harvest enough saffron filaments to fill a small glass jar; that's for sure.
