I thoroughly enjoyed reading your excellent article in the IRG, Wim.  I have read there was variation in Eranthis pinnatifida but it was wonderful to see these variations in pictures, especially the pink ones.

I definitely enjoyed Mr. Boens edifying and interesting article in the January IRG.

I do have one question. Has anyone had success germinating Eranthis seed that has been stored at "room-temperature" for more than a few weeks? If so, how?

Maybe I'm barking up the wrong tree, but it would be useful for me if I could get germination from older Eranthis seed.

Tatsuo, beautiful.

E. pinnatifida in the open garden yesterday. Despite the very mild temperatures (Where's Winter ?) is pinnatifida more than three week later than last year ! It's like Ian Young says in his Bulb Log: it isn't just the temperature alone that let the plants awake !
