Hocus Pocus Crocus, a set on Flickr.
Crocus belongs to the Iris family. The name Crocus seems to come from Greece and means Saffron or Saffron Yellow. Fresco's show them being harvested at Knossos in Crete.The financial community sometimes refers to companies or economic sectors that rise early after an economic downturn as "crocuses" in reference to the flower's ability to thrive in the late winter or early spring.
