Regular crocus is not commonly pink.

But Autumn crocus can be. There are several types, one with huge leaves and one more grasslike. They bloom in fall here, but the foliage comes up in spring.

If you do "autumn crocus" in Google images...you might find one to match. Most autumn crocus are violet ranging to hot pink.

I have 2 varieties here. They tend to be larger than spring blooming crocus.
