I think I've got some Iris plants popping up leaves, no croci yet. Unless they are really small.

@doctorwhom Plural croci, til. I thought these were. Had to look them up

@miyotehew

Wikipedia does say of crocus: "plural: crocuses or croci"

@independentpen @doctorwhom Til Crocus is derived from the Greek word krokos, which means “saffron”

@miyotehew @doctorwhom if it's Greek I guess the plural is crocoi (crocoy?)
