No, it comes from PaulChristian and there is no indication about the origin on the website.

Othocallis amoena deserves its name, Karaba!

A find in a local wood where Hyacinthoides non-scripta grow.

Othocallis amoena is my favorite, i grow it in deep shade and got intense colors, the bulbs planted in full sun have smaller flowers.

I've some grown from Seedex seeds but still not flowering.
The taxonomy of this species is a mess with different species described from Gallicia (Tractema merinoi ), Andalousia (T. odorata), South-West France (T. umbellata) and in Spain where ramburii is quite different from verna, they have lump them in the same species !
I have now T. verna from Basque country and seedlings from Wales, ramburii from somewhere in Spain ( ;D) and would like to have some other of the Scilla verna group from the other origins.
