Colchicum volutare, previously known as Androcymbium volutare, is a perennial growing from a deep-seated corm.
The long, narrow leaves are channelled, hairy and usually coiled at their tips. They are up to 12 cm long, rarely as wide as 1 cm low down where they are widest.
The few flowers in the inflorescence growing on very short pedicels are hidden behind large, broadly ovate bracts. The longitudinally lined bracts turn cream or lemon-green when the plant flowers, in picture appearing inflated. There are six oblong anthers in each flower. The slender styles recurve.
Flowering happens late in winter and early in spring.
Price is for 5 seeds
