Botanical Profile
The saffron plant (Crocus sativus) is a small perennial herb standing 10–30 cm tall. From the bulb’s base, slender leaves emerge, followed by flowering stalks bearing 1–3 blooms.
Each blossom features six violet petals (sometimes pink or purple), three stamens, and a pistil ending in a three‑branched red‑orange stigma.
The precious portion — the dried stigmas and style tip — is prized for its aromatic, slightly bitter flavor and exceptional coloring capacity.
