I really like crocuses because these are early flowers. They can bloom when there is still a lot of snow around, and this gives a special fabulousness to the whole garden, so that you can not take your eyes off.
And I also love them for this, that they need to be transplanted only once every 5 years!
Remember that crocuses love light, they stretch to the sun. In the spring they feel good, but in the summer it will be necessary to shade our flowers.

But what you can do is to loosen the soil, so melt water will get better where the flower is needed). In addition, it will help the plant to be saturated with oxygen for better flowering.
Fertilizing in the spring for crocuses will be a good incentive for growth, because during the winter the soil was depleted. Complex mixtures are a great option. The basis should be a combination of phosphorus and potassium articles, they will help the roots develop and strengthen the stems of our flowers. You need to fertilize no more than once every 2 weeks and after the snow has melted.
Add top dressing to the hole, avoid getting it on leaves, shoots.
