Thank you friends for this green Easter.
Now we have also a graecus-virescens in the green circle. Special Thanks to Dima.
Years ago I found on the saturday easter GRÜNE OSTERN - Green Easter in an old rectory garden.
Today I can show you only hope. Hope for some better days without snow.

Dimitri,I love the subtle shade of your 'Greek Olive'.I've being told by a few people now,to really show off the colour,you have to grow them in the shade.Do you grow the green ones in half shade or full sun?And do you think it makes a difference? ??? ???

I go for the Green Dragon ;D
 i do think Warei because the spathe is not always split with this one.
Ian,I have to agree with Gerard.I too have petalloid spathes on Viridapice ,this year.I still think its nice though. :)
Thankyou for the pictures of green ;D ;D.I would have to look at them together ,in my own little plot, to choose . ;D ;D ;D

Steve, I grow him in open position 2 years already - full sun all day long, moreover, the new accessions of it during our last bessarabian trip had the same OLIVE color, so, it isn't at all the sun impact  ;D the site where snowdrops grow didn't make a difference at all in marks or ovary color. Only the complete lack of light when snowdrops regrow under deep cover make them fully etiolated, but it reverses next few weeks to a full green
