Leena, I placed this plant near the Hepatica nobilis 'Rubra' and will see what happens.

[Herman Mylemans]

Hepatica nobilis 'Perrine's Pink' with later his beautiful leaves.

Hepatica nobilis plena from Gotland

Hepatica x media ‘Buis’ (selection Hepatica transsilvanica x H. nobilis)

I found this link on the web: http://www.flowercards.de/pdf/Hepatica%20-%20Leberbluemchen.pdf

H.nobilis Plena from Gotland looks fantastic, it really grows well in your garden.  I have never found doubles here in our woods.
I think also Hepaticas will be earlier than normal here this year. Yesterday I noticed the first flower buds in our native H.nobilis in the warmest place near my garden.

Hepatica americana 'Rosea'

A real beauty, Herman.

A real beauty, Herman. 

Maggi, it flowers for a long time because it is sterile. It is also a good grower.

[Maggi Young]

Interesting  facts, Herman - thank you.

[Rick R.]

Sterile plants that look normal can be a real bonus.  Yours are wonderful, Herman.  Does the flower color fade since they last longer?  What about the pink stamens?  Are those all siblings in the pic?  They look pretty uniform.  Are athey all sterile?

Rick, all the plants are divisions from one plant. The colour stays almost the same till the end.

Growing them in pots does have great advantage Luc!
In my opinion 'Millstream Merlin' is one of the greatest Hepatica cultivar of all time.

Hepatica nobilis var. pyrenaica x japonica

Exquisite in its simplicity!!! Too bad it doesn't set seeds.
