Saffron is a well-known herb and spice obtained from the flowers of the saffron crocus (Crocus sativus), a cultivated species of crocus in the Iridaceae family. The plant itself is also called saffron for short. The three stigmas of the flower (the distal ends of the pistils ? the female reproductive organs of the plant) and part of its stigma (the stem connecting the stigmas to the rest of the plant) are dried and used in cooking as a spice and coloring. Saffron, which has been the world's most expensive spice by weight for centuries, grows naturally in Southwest Asia and Southern Europe, especially Greece. Saffron crocus is a perennial plant that blooms in autumn. Mostly cultivated, it is rarely found in the wild. It is a sterile triploid mutant of the eastern Mediterranean autumn crocus Crocus cartwrightianus. The cultivated saffron crocus has purple flowers that are sterile and do not produce seeds that can germinate on their own without human intervention. Instead, its bulbs must be dug up and broken up by hand in order to be replanted. The bulbs are brown in color, up to 4.5 cm in diameter, and are covered with a mat of parallel fibers. When in bloom, the saffron crocus reaches up to 30 cm. in height. Each flower has a triple-branched pistil, ending in three dark red stamens. They can be between 25 and 30 mm long. 110,000?165,000 flowers are needed for one kilogram of dried saffron.
