Spain's blooms, live
We don't tell you when it usually blooms. We tell you how it is today.
We watch every field by satellite and with official sources: you see how much is still standing, the usual date range with its confidence level, and we let you know when it arrives.
Next: saffron crocus at Consuegra, from mid-october to mid-november.

Harvest begins
What we said and what happened
Date ranges the system published on each date (time machine on the Tiedra page).
2026 blind test
We made the forecast using only previous years, without looking at 2026, and compared it with what happened.
0 days
of error in Tiedra: forecast for 27 July, it began on 27 July
8 of 8
milestones that happened fell inside the "almost certain" range in Brihuega, Tiedra and Moratalla
±3 days
typical margin with which the satellite dates the cut of each field
In Tiedra and Moratalla half of the fields were never cut, which the forecast did not anticipate: that milestone did not happen and is not counted.
How we know
Satellite, every 2–5 days
We look at every field from space and detect when it is cut. No waiting for anyone to report it.
Official sources
Bloom data from AEMET, farm bulletins and tourist-office reports, always credited.
People who are there
Visitors who tell us in one tap how the field looks today. The more of them, the finer the data.
