Eranthis 2014

[Hans J]

Hi Hans,

looks really special. I have a feeling 'Zitronenfalter' is a bit paler and 'Lightning' is more bright....Barbara's colour seems somewhere in between. Very nice!

Hi Wim ,

thank you for your comment 
It seems I need urgent Zironenfalter + Lightning for comparison

I’ve found an interesting article about Eranthis byunsanensis and its relatives. Perhaps someone already mentioned before…

Very interesting, YT, thanks!

Eranthis pinnatifida, multi-petaled, white flower form. It looks some of the petals (nectars) are replaced by sepals.
It is said the original plant was found and collected at Shiojiri-shi, Nagano-ken, Japan. My plant is of course a seedling from it.

I might consider moving to Japan just for those Eranthis

Today I was here in Jena in the famous Eranthis-forest:

Eranthis stellata.

It is from my garden and the last two day it has rained, rained and rained again, so therefore the petals look not so good and when I took the picture I could see the have been a little devil and eat of the second flower but I am happy for see flowers in my Eranthis stellata for first time.

Not only Eranthis, but Hepaticas and Epimediums are also waiting for you, Wim

Uwe it looks amazing, I understand those people there is out for a walk to see this sight. Uwe have you seen any with a different color or shape?

[Uwe]

Maggi, the area is over 1 hectare and almost 2 million flowers.
A lot of people look at that every year.

[Uwe]

Karl, no variability. All are equal.

Wonderful to see Eranthis in the wild.
