According to a church member, the crocuses were first planted in the graveyard of Rhu Parish Church (as it was then) over 100 years ago. They have certainly flourished and provide a great spectacle at this time of year. Rhu and Shandon Parish Church were holding a "Crocus Tea" in their church hall on this particular afternoon.
