[Herbalist] crocuses in autumn NZ

[BJ of NZ]

Crocuses have been on a lots of the herb lists , so I
went out to check the bulbs I planted out three years
ago, Autumn isn't a particularly good time for me so I
have neglected these, but they have survived and the
shoots are present I may even get flowers.

If they have survived my neglect they are pretty hardy
so I'm sure you'll have success also.
