1. How to buy Saffron Bulbs SUMMARY
Buying Saffron Bulbs (saffron seed) from a Saffron Farmer like La Paradisière will allow you to Grow and Harvest the Saffron Spice
-
Several Varieties
Several Genetic Strains of Crocus sativus are available in the commercial circuits
They are unequal in productivity of both Saffron Bulbs and Saffron Spice, and possibly, in Saffron Spice Quality
The Strain that we market is grown for the Production of Saffron Spice
It is therefore less productive in Bulbs than Bulb Production Strains, but preferable for Spice Production
(fewer bulbs, larger bulbs, better flowering, bigger threads)
Caliber & Productivity
In France, the Size of Saffron Bulbs is given as a Caliber
Caliber is the Equatorial Circumference of a Saffron Bulb in cm
Caliber 9/10 = 9 to 10 cm circumference of the Saffron Bulbs
(automatically measured by a calibrating machine)
We market this Caliber by default because it is the Best Compromise for the Customer regarding Flower Rate, Price, and Total Weight and Volume of their Order (shipping costs)
Bulbs of Caliber 9/10 STATISTICALLY give 1.5 Flowers on Planting Year, which is a good average rate
(against 0.9 for cal. 8/9 bulbs)
1g of Saffron requires 120-250 Flowers
Planting Density = 30 Bulbs per m2
Varying Price
The Price of Saffron Bulbs is constrained by the Genetic Strain of Crocus sativus, the Production Process, and Bulb Caliber
Phytosanitary Quality
La Paradisière has a Valid Phytosanitary Passport which guarantees that you will Acquire Pest-free and Disease-free Bulbs

3. When & How to Plant & Cultivate Saffron? SUMMARY
In the Northern Hemisphere
Saffron Bulbs are planted in Summer (July and August)
La Paradisière ships your Saffron Bulbs so that you receive them in the Heart of Summer, at the Best Season for Planting
Attention!
The Bulbs of Saffron prepare their flowering underground during Summer
To Flower well, they must be stored in precise conditions, and ideally, be planted before the end of August
In the Southern Hemisphere
Our Customers from the Southern Hemisphere can buy Saffron Bulbs to La Paradisière
Their Acclimatization to a Reverse Seasonal Cycle is possible and has already been successful in Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, etc.
By default, the management of this cultivation aspect is left entirely to the Customer
For large orders however, La Paradisière can acclimatize your Bulbs to the Seasonal inversion for you - contact us
Planting Method
Several Cultivation Methods exist, which are detailed in La Bible du Safranier
Plant the Saffron Bulbs 10-15 cm Deep
Minimum horizontal spacing: 15 cm
(at the end of the growing season, the leaves can reach 60 cm long)
Recommended max. Density is approx. 30 Bulbs per m2
Cultivation Methods
The Environmental Conditions to provide to Saffron and the various Cultivation Methods, as well as all the Issues, Diseases and Pests, are detailed systematically and indepth in La Bible du Safranier
Schematically, give to Crocus sativus a location with full sun in all seasons
A moderately fertile and well-drained soil
Keep always clean by permanent weeding
Regenerate your Saffron Field every 3 years
4. Phytosanitary and Administrative Aspects SUMMARY
Our Saffron Bulbs have a Phytosanitary Passport for France and other EU Countries
A Phytosanitary Certificate may be required for international destinations outside the EU
Please contact the Administration of your Country before Buying
More information on the Procedure to follow is given in Section 5.1.3 of our General Terms
