crocus
It is raining today, but here are some sunny day photos of CROCUS. I love the name crocus! it sounds like it was coined by a botanist who happened to be a frog or a toad.

Crocus (a different variety than this) is where saffron comes from.
...maybe crocus was named by a crocodile botanist.

[side note from my window: it is raining, but there are 3 robins hopping from branch to flowered branch in the cherry tree -  a very charming scene that thankfully distracted me from the machinations of crocodile botany.]

With stripes! It looks like silk.
