Edward had come running in when he'd seen the first flower so he wasn't sure if there were any more about. The other bears walked around, looking carefully at the ground for any other crocuses that might be out.

"Look over here!" called Boo. "Are these crocuses too? They're not yellow, but they look like the same shape."

The others walked over whilst Bubbles consulted his book. "Why, yes!" he answered. "Apparently, crocuses come in all sorts of colours, not just yellow, but purple, lavender, cream and white."

They found lots of groups of crocuses all over the meadow. Teddy stopped, puzzled. "There seem to be a lot more of them than last year," he said. "I don't remember us planting any more."

"Well, actually," said Bubbles, reading from his book, "it seems that, over time, the crocus bulbs we plant will multiply on their own to produce more flowers every year."
