Can anyone please tell me what these flowers are? The bulbs are very
similar to Crocus corms. The plant spikes come up at the beginning of
the monsoon here in Goa and the flowers are in three colors i.e.
White, Yellow and Pink.
Also I want to try and grow Crocus, will it be possible in my climate
and if so, what are the precautions I need to take. I have already
received the bulbs from Garden Express in Australia.

They may be Zephyranthes, Rainlilies.
