Discover the beauty and value of Saffron Crocus (Crocus sativus) with our premium bulbs. Each bulb is 9/10 to 10+ cm in circumference, carefully selected for strength, health, and high flowering potential. With 3 years of growth, these mature bulbs are ready to reward you with abundant saffron blooms and rich red stigmas.

Saffron crocus (Crocus sativus), known as the source of the luxurious spice "red gold," is an extraordinary plant that offers both beauty and value. Growing saffron requires a bit of care, but the rewards are well worth it.

Planting Saffron Crocus Corms

  • Soil Preparation: Use a well-draining mix of potting soil, perlite/sand, a bit of vermicompost/compost, and a moderate amount of fertilizer. The soil should be fluffy and not clump when compressed.
  • Planting Depth: Plant corms 4 inches deep and 4 inches apart.
  • Sunlight: Saffron plants thrive in full sun. Position the pots or ground beds where they won't receive water from sprinklers, as the corms need dry conditions.
  • Protection: Protect the corms from rodents by using wire mesh or by planting them in containers or raised beds.
  • Watering: Water the corms only when planting them in pre-moistened soil; no additional watering is needed until growth appears in fall.

Growth and Bloom

  • Bloom Timing: Flowers usually appear 6-8 weeks after planting, typically from mid-October to mid-December, often coinciding with the cold front. Bloom lasts about 3 weeks.
  • Observation: The flowers may emerge alone or with grass-like leaves. Look for a white semi-transparent stalk as an early sign of blooming. Harvest the flowers early in the morning, as they bloom and fade within a few hours.

Dormancy and Overwintering

  • Dormancy: After blooming, the corms go dormant in summer, but they will re-emerge in fall. The leaves may also reappear in spring without blooming.
  • Cold Climates: In colder regions, dig up the corms and store them in sand or dry peat moss at 40-50°F. Replant them in early spring, but avoid watering until fall growth.

Harvesting and Using Saffron

  • Harvesting: Each flower produces three red stigmas, the precious saffron strands. Store the flowers in the refrigerator to keep them fresh.
  • Usage: Saffron can be used fresh or dried. To use, soak the strands in hot milk or water, then crush to release the golden color, perfect for garnishing dishes like basmati rice or pilaf.

By following these steps, you can successfully grow and harvest your own saffron, enjoying both the visual beauty of the flowers and the culinary richness of the spice.

give this amazon basic option a try
Size: Standard (Pack of 2), Style: Soft, Configuration: Pillow
great comfort and value for everyday use. Designed with soft density, they provide gentle support that works well for stomach and back sleepers, helping maintain a comfortable sleeping position throughout the night. The down alternative fill feels plush yet lightweight, making the pillow cozy without being too firm. It holds its shape reasonably well and is suitable for guest rooms or daily use. While side sleepers may need more support, this pillow is a solid, affordable option for anyone looking for soft, breathable comfort.

I am very impressed!
This little frother is perfect and my frappé coffee tastes as if I were sitting at one of the hundreds cute, outside cafés in Thessaloniki. It whips stiff coffee foam in just a few seconds, holds charge for a long time, and appears to be of superior quality. Variable speed control is great, as it prevents the coffee liquid to splash when starting the frothing process. Granted, I have only owned it for about 2 weeks, but I am totally impressed, and hope it'll keep making delicious frappés for me for a long time to come. So far, highly recommend!

Whips as good as my Nespresso Aerocino!
Love this frother. Whips milk as good as my Nespresso Aerocino! I have tried several that just made light foam, but this one is wonderful. And, rechargeable also. Charge lasts a very long time. Great for travel!

Solid Upgrade, Needs Color Variety
Replaced my old frother with this one and it's a solid step up. Seriously, better build quality, more features, and noticeably more control. The variable speed dial is genuinely useful. Being able to dial from low (protein powder, matcha) to high (thick cappuccino foam) feels like an actual upgrade. The three whisk attachments give you flexibility depending on what you're making, and the included stand is a nice touch. Helps keeps the coffee bar counter from getting cluttered. Battery life seems strong so far; one charge has lasted through multiple weeks of daily use without issue. Pros: - Variable speed dial works well across a real range (not just "low" and "high") - Three whisk heads included — good for different drink types - Stand included; compact and stays put on the counter Cons: - Singular color option. The mint green clashes with everything on my coffee bar setup; wish there were neutral alternatives. ANY alternatives! - Everyone may not like the price tag but it wasn't out of my budget and the included extra bits made it worth it for me. If your kitchen palette doesn't fight the mint green, this is a capable, well-built frother at a decent price.
