Hi
Our season is rapidly coming to an end now. We have had hot and extremely windy weather this week. We still have lots of bulbocodiums, some choice fertile jonquilla hybrids, triandus species and poeticus flowering so there is still some hybridising going on.
The intermediate sized 7Y-Y usually has 3 florets and they are usually perfect. Now all I need to do is change its colour so it is more valuable.
However, no split cups for Lesley!

The little jonquils are very pretty,  but I really love those triandrus hybs. It's the shape of them - just so elegant.

Armin,
For predators - I recommend a Forum-Membermeeting - keep a sufficient number of fly flaps ready and here we go!
There is a good number of excellent 'flycatchers' among them - see Forum notes - and you'll soon get
rid of your problem.
If  these 'predators' will stay too long there will be a new problem concerning board and lodging.

Gerd,
it seems I scored a own goal ;D I did'nt mean the two-legged kind of predators scurrying with a fishnet... ::)
But, on the other hand, why not invite skilled 'flycatchers' for help ;) ;D

Best wishes
Armin
