The source of Saffron: gathered by collecting the tiny bright red stigmata from each flower (it takes half a million per kilo, thereby justifying the huge cost of Saffron). They need deep planting in rich soil, in a sunny position and probably need lifting and dividing with regularity to encourage flowering. Their flower production is triggered by suddenly colder nights, our maritime climate does not regularly provide that, which makes guaranteeing one’s own Saffron production a bit uncertain, but it is still a lovely bloom.
They need deep planting 4" (10cm) in well drained rich soil in a sunny situation and 3" (8cm) apart.
