A rare, pure white species with red pistils that bloom throughout Greece. In ancient legend, the white saffron crocus growing on the slope of Mt. Parnassus - home of the Muses - was collected by the Pythia, a priestess at the Oracle of Delphi. The Pythia would then offer the white blooms to the gods. They would reply through the Pythia's incomprehensible mutterings which were interpreted by a priest. The Delphic Oracle was regarded as the final authority in religious matters. Normally blooms in October. 188/sq. yd.
