I’ve never seen or heard about ‘Autumn Crocus’ before! Do they truly flower in the Fall? I love the bee frolicking inside its depths!

Maybe they have another name, but yes, they bloom in the fall. Those bees were fighting over who was going to be boss in this blossom…the bigger bee won. It was interesting to watch them. I had never seen bees do that. 😊
