•  Info created and uploaded by Rhododendrites - nominated by W.carter -- Cart (talk) 21:12, 4 April 2019 (UTC)
•  Support Irresistible compo, an image that really lights up my heart. A shame it was uploaded in March, it would have been great for this month's photo challenge. --Cart (talk) 21:12, 4 April 2019 (UTC)
•  Weak support Yes it's a very nice mix of dead leaves with fresh flowers, that reminds me this recent picture by Famberhorst. But here the shadow at the bottom, looking like a camera strap, spoils a little bit -- Basile Morin (talk) 00:47, 5 April 2019 (UTC)

•  Comment Don't want to be a party pooper but Crocus is a genus comprising over 90 species. I thought we usually require better identification than this for specimen photos. -- Colin (talk) 16:43, 6 April 2019 (UTC)

• Ideally it would be great if someone could identify the species here, but FPs have passed with just the genus, especially among photos of trees, were no more precise classification could be made. I'm no expert on crocus species though, sorry, but having searched in some floras and id-plant sites I could guess that this is the rather common Crocus tommasinianus. --Cart (talk) 18:40, 6 April 2019 (UTC)

• @Colin and W.carter: Yep. The botanical garden responded to my inquiry: Crocus tommasinianus it is. Updated. — Rhododendrites ^talk |  20:34, 10 April 2019 (UTC)
