[Sca-cooks] saffron crocus

[Pixel, Goddess and Queen]

Ok, I bought three packs of what I'm pretty sure are saffron crocus (they
say "sativus" on the label, they're purple, and in the picture have long
red stamens). Does anyone on the list grow them that would have useful
tips for successful crocus-raising?

I'm pretty sure I have a sunny spot to plant them in, sheltered from the
cruel western winds. Or could I grow them in a pot (or three) as long as I
move them into the garage for the winter?
