Hello all the pictures of these Hepaticas are wonderful our season has just started with a few last week quite late but as we had snow over the weekend and on Tuesday little wonder they keep their heads down a few pictures, cheers Ian the Christie kind

[ichristie]

A few more, Ian

Sorry that I have been so late in replying but after posting the pictures my computer crashed and I have only just got it repaired today having lost everything and with no back-up.There's a salutary lesson to all.

However,thanks for your comments everybody,they are most gratifying.There is no secret,I rarely re-pot and never feed.I think they thrive on neglect and it would appear that they do not like being messed about.
It works for me.

[Maggi Young]

Sincere sympathies on the loss of your data, John.

This normal Hepatica nobilis caught my eye in the garden today, while typing behind my computer I saw this blue cloud constantly from the corner of my eye through the window and it was more than distracting....

We've all been in that boat John.  I can highly recommend Apple's Time Machine  - edit with Time Capsule (the hardware) - as a backup drive.  We keep the - edit Time Capsule  - in the basement and it backs up wirelessly.  Why the basement?  It's hidden in case the computer is stolen, you don't want the backup stolen along with it!

I do save forum pix with the forumist'sname attached and 80 have your name attached if you'd like them emailed or burnt and mailed over.

johnw  - a wretched cold day here.

Thats very kind of you John but my posted pics.are of the least concern as they are repeatable.My main concern is the loss of family pictures over the last ten years that can never be replaced but many thanks all the same.

Any more information on the time machine ?

Sorry to confuse John.  Time Machine is actually the Apple programme for backing up with the hardware called Time Caspsule.  You can set the interval at which you want things backed up, we have it set to do so every hour, it does so without any interference or slow down.

Ours must be the "old" version as it looks like this:   http://gizmodo.com/345045/apple-time-capsule-server-for-wireless-time-machine-backups

Time Capsule now looks like this:  https://www.apple.com/ca/airport-time-capsule/

AlanB might be able to explain how with Microsoft products. Beyond my comprehension: http://techsupport.foreverwarm.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Using-Time-Capsule-with-a-Windows-PC.pdf

In YT's  photo report from the Hepatica show and sale in Tokyo last month, quite a few of us were enchanted  by the yellow varieties shown - here are some really lovely examples, grown by Chris Vermeire in Belgium

[Luc Gilgemyn]

They are fabulous, Maggi ! 

[Gunilla]

Absolutely gorgeous all of them!  I rather like how the four bracts kind of frame the flower on the first one.

[Maggi Young]

I love them - they are beyond fabulous for me! 

[annew]

  wow!
