::::Will do, an excellent find. I do love the sight of a saffron crocus with the stigma showing, but as a keen cook I guess I'm biased! [[User:MattS|MattS]] 19:26, 1 June 2009 (EDT)

:::::Also, I stand corrected. I was always under the impression that only one strand of saffron can be obtained from one flower, but your image, combined with others I have researched, have proved otherwise. I am now quite tempted to find some saffron crocus bulbs to grow for my own personal satisfaction. [[User:MattS|MattS]] 19:32, 1 June 2009 (EDT)

They need to be that specific Crocus, however. I have seen a harvest on a farm in Spain, and to get just one teaspoon of Saffron, involves like 50 flowers, or something ridiculous. --[[User:TK|'''ṬK''']]<sub><small><small>/Admin</small></small></sub><sup>[[User_Talk:TK|/Talk]]</sup> 19:48, 1 June 2009 (EDT)
