Saffron
Have been toying with the idea of growing this for several years and had the opportunity to get some just before Christmas and again at the local farm machinery field days, called Farm World.
Eleven of the first dozen have come up and I am not expecting the last one too, scratching around it cannot be seen. Of the 51 from farm world 28 are up, more will come through yet and a quick check this morning found one pulled out. So photos below are of pulled out plant with side shoots on corm, one that has been up for 10 to 14 days and one that has been up for 6 or 7 weeks.
