Crocus Corm Orders and Delivery Details

Price £185.00 for a box of 4,000 Corms

There are two changes this year that we hope will simplify the process:

  • All orders will be placed by clubs online – see below
  • All payments will be made direct to RGB & I – bank details are available after completing the online form. 

To order online - go to https://www.rotarygbi.org/crocus-order-form


Alternatively, the process is:

Log on to https://www.rotarygbi.org

From the home page, the steps are:

  1. Select ‘Our Projects’ then
  2. Click ‘Purple for Polio – End Polio Now’
  3. Then click on the ‘Crocus Corms graphic’
  4. Scroll down to the ‘Online order form link

The last couple of years have been difficult for growers which has had an impact on the quantity of corms available. We are confident of an improvement this year.

Deadline for the submission of orders will be Friday 28 August. Please order by this date as late requests cannot be guaranteed and you do not want to be disappointed!!


Having said the above, please do not leave it until the last minute and get your orders in as soon as possible!


Regarding the planting in November, please try and maximise the visibility of the event by getting local schools or groups such as the scouts, guides, air cadets involved. We want to increase the awareness of Rotary’s promise to rid the world of polio as much as possible.
