I was very busy, so I failed to post a photo of H. x euroasiatica 'Röttgesbütteler Röschen' (a name which must have been chosen for maximum difficulties for English speakers) while it was still in bloom. This hybrid increases slowly but is quite hardy.

H. nobilis 'Schneeflocke' has exceeded my expectations in flower size and beauty.

We went last week-end to woods near our house to see Hepatica nobilis flowering and found that they had increased since last year and this was a good year for them. There were different blues and pinks and we found even one white H.nobilis.
My husband had posted couple of pictures of different colored H.nobilis here in the wild in his blog.

Ditto - some lovely photographs there - the cranes in flight, a basking lizard, the mossy forests scenes - all conjure up evocative impressions of your wild places.

Thanks  :), I will tell him.
I had never before seen white H.nobilis here in the woods, and just before we found these a friend gave me a white one which was originally from a place near west coast where more of it grows in my friends parents property.
This has been a very good year for H.nobilis here, though in the edge of my own garden the deer or wild hares had eaten most of the flowers of H.nobilis. :(

Does anyone have for exchange or for sale (or know who might sell) double blue or double white H. nobilis? Anne, which nursery supplied yours?

Yemen, what a country ... Haraz mountains, Socotra, Sana'a, Hadramaut, the empty quarter.... a country of stunning, mind altering beauty...and the friendliest of people.

Thanks Michael.    I find such out of season flowers rather fun.
