Semi-double crocus

Dear All,

I discovered, in my garden, a seedling crocus blooming for the first time
which has ten perianth segments (petals) and is colored like C.
tommasinianus, but the petals are more rounded. It's not open today because
the weather is cloudy, so I can't give a more detailed description. Does
anyone know if this is a relatively common occurrence and whether this trait
could be transmitted to offspring via vegetative reproduction or intentional
cloning?

 

Happy Easter,

Dell
