Crocuses are mainly propagated by dividing the bulbs. After the flowers have faded, wait until the leaves naturally wither, then dig up the bulbs in the summer and divide them for planting. When planting, plant the bulbs at a depth of 7–10 cm, and it is recommended to space them about 5–10 cm apart.

Important Pests and Control Methods:

Crocuses are generally resistant to pests and diseases, but they can occasionally contract soft rot or gray mold. Since these diseases are primarily caused by excessive moisture, prevent them by managing drainage well. Additionally, as mice or moles may eat the bulbs, use bulb protection netting if necessary. If chemical pest control is used, select and use an environmentally friendly and appropriate product whenever possible.
