Wow!  Love that colour

Dierama 'Merlin' doing well at last. This has taken several years to get this many flowering spikes. I split it last year and improved the compost. I just need to wait for it to bulk up properly now.
And it will be no surprise to you now that it is a deep rich colour ;)

Thanks Hans, but I don't think it's D. deltoides. If I compare the photos on the www I see that
deltoides has different leaves in colour and form. I've checked my seed list for the according time
and found that I received: D. alpinus, haemantocalyx ssp pindicula and myrtvinervis, is this of any help for the experts?

A few things in flower at the moment:

Thalictrum delavayi decorum; a small seedling. It's big-flowered and grows rather massive, but probably best grown thru something as it always flops.
Adenophora triphylla
Zigadenus elegans
Morina - but which one?
Filipendula received as "palmata 'Nana'", probably a form of F. multijuga, with red-veined leaves.
Geranium delavayi
Gentiana georgei (hard to tell size from a pic, but that's an 11cm pot!)
Corydalis shihmienensis
Heuchera 'Pinot Gris'

Arisaema, your garden looks full of interesting plants flowering now.... Geranium delavayi is fabulous (insects think so too, I see  :D)

Arisaema, not only great plants, but beautiful photos too.  Good diversity of late flowering plants, something I'm always looking for.
