Pam, I have conducted research in several online dictionaries and it appears that both plurals are acceptable; even though the word is of Greek and not Latin origin 'croci' is given. Personally I much prefer crocuses.
My computer (poor reception area) is starting to take rather a long time to get the photos, especially Bev's. I had to stop looking at Happy Marion's thread on winter wonderlands because her photos were too big. Some photos come quite quickly. Oh, Bev's hyacinth has just arrived!
Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.
Liz - my laptop (mobile broadband) can take a while to download some of the larger files. I always try to remember to make my photos smaller before posting. There are a few ways of doing this - I use Microsoft Picture Manager to resize mine. Geoff (Sotongeoff) is your man if any of you need "talking through" the other ways of resizing pictures
This is a picture of one of my climbing roses, called Sympathy. It must be at least 20 years old, was here when we moved in 15 years ago, had a thick trunk then already, but it flowers like crazy every year.
