        Colchicum

        Plant Colchicum, also known as autumn crocus, has an intriguing story. Legend has it that Zeus, the Greek god, was struck by a thunderbolt of love for a beautiful mortal woman named Colchis, but their relationship was forbidden. To protect her, Zeus transformed Colchis into a lovely flower, which we now know as Colchicum. Its vibrant blooms symbolize enduring love and the fragility of forbidden relationships. This captivating tale reminds us of the power of love and the transcendence of beauty.
