Lovely views, Ian. I was wondering what is the name of the snowdrop  behind the crocuses in your first picture? It is a very nice clump with plump flowers. :)

Inspired by Tony's beautiful C sieberi I went to see if I had any C.sieberi in flower and found one pot in bud. I brought it indoors through heavy rain and photographed it as it was opening up. It is Crocus sieberi ssp sieberi from Omalos Crete.
