''Colchicum cupani'' is a widespread species, known as the Mediterranean Meadow Saffron, which grows around much of the central Mediterranean Basin, reported from France, Sardinia, Italy, Albania, Greece, Montenegro, Croatia, Sicily, Algeria, Malta and Tunisia.〔(Kew World Checklist of Selected Plant Families, ''Colchicum cupani'' )〕 ''Colchicum cupani'' is quite variable. Some specimens have flowers that open completely to a star shape, while other specimens remain cup-shaped. The pink to purple, untessellated flowers are small, up to 3 cm (1") in diameter, but are produced in abundance in the fall. The foliage is also produced in the fall.〔Autumn Bulbs by Roy Leeds (B.T.
