Plant of the week: Saffron

Saffron is a pretty, autumn-flowering crocus with purple petals and those glowing, golden, paella-enhancing stamens. They need sun and a light, free-draining soil, and they will grow well in pots if your soil is heavy. We are offering 30 corms for £9.95, 60 for £15.90 or 120 corms for £27.80 (prices include UK mainland p&p). To order, call 0330 333 6851, quoting ref GUPW243, or visit our Readers' Offer page .
