Colchicum kotschyi is a species of flowering plant in the Colchicaceae family.[2] It is native to Iran, Iraq and Turkey.[1] It blooms relatively early for an autumn flowering colchicum, as early as August. The flowers often open to a pink-purple colour, but white flowered specimens are common in the wild. The plant reaches up to 2 m (6") tall and grows well in sunny, warm locations.[3][4]
