Saffron (Crocus sativus) is a garden treasure you can grow right at home. This Fall-blooming crocus is planted between August and October, with its delicate blooms appearing in October and November. The vivid crimson stigmas — hand-harvested from each flower — are dried to create the world’s most luxurious spice, prized for its flavor, rich golden color, and remarkable wellness benefits.
A few reasons saffron belongs in your garden:
Grows in Many Climates: Thrives from zones 4–10.
Fall Beauty: Offers rare autumn blooms when most gardens are winding down.
Incredible Value: The most expensive spice in the world — fresh from your own backyard.
Self-Replenishing: Corms multiply year after year, increasing your harvest.
Low Maintenance: Requires little water, minimal nutrition, and easy care.
Multi-Purpose Magic: Adds exquisite flavor, vibrant color, and a touch of history to your kitchen.
Long-Lasting: Properly stored saffron can keep its quality for years.
With its striking petals and brilliant red-gold pistils, saffron is more than a spice — it’s a conversation piece, a culinary delight, and a piece of living history.
