Colchicum cupani pulverulentum

This form has fantastically undulate margins to the long, thin leaves, which enhance the general decorative nature of the species, making it horticulturally very distinct.

It is a miniature, very hardy, species with 1cm broad, polished, glossy leaves and clusters of small pink goblets jammed together in the autumn. The colouring is concentrated in bands on the petals, not quite stripes, but almost.
