Same situation like yours Richard, but in the greenhouse.
We have snow now and  -10°C,
but I can walk between the flowers.........
Take a camera with in your greenhouse and show us photos  ;D  ;D  Berlin also has a lot of snow, not a plant in sight  :-[ and no greenhouse ...

Took a trip to Wandlebury last week and was saddened to see that there has been no attempt to control the rabbits where the yellow and green drops are to be found. Amongst those in bloom were at least two yellows but did not spot any green ones.

Squeltched around the lawn at home this afternoon to see how the drops were coming on. Found Hugh MacKenzie had been topped this week by something.

Just a few pictures of how some are clumping up here and a twin headed Bill Clark bought last year from Wal and Sue.

Hugh MacKenzie (or what is left of it)
Sandersii (one I found near Old Bewick and clumps up well - the first yellow to show here)

Yes they are nice clumps John, the sandersii especially good in a clump.

I'm hoping moving sandersii to lattice pots will give better results here, they look great in clumps but mine just sit & sulk.

another green outer seedling from the batch I found last year.

I have an elwesii, found in a garden centre, that also has a green base to the outer segments.  I suspect it's a feature that often passes unnoticed.
