Patrick, nice Hepatica to start the growing season!

[shelagh]

Wow Patrick that's early. Ours are in a very frosty frame at the moment.

[mellifera]

Yes this is early Shelagh,  but it is totally different from variety to variety

Patrick having looked more closely at the enlarged picture I love it's little freckles of colour I don't think I've seen one like that before.

Shelag, maybe the little freckles are from the substrate

How very nice to have Hepatica flowers to start the new year! And both snow-white

Beautiful flowers Carsten.
What‘s the name of the two filled nobilis or are they nameless?

[Leena]

Beautiful!
I can't believe your Hepatica season has already started, here is will be cold and snow at least two more months.
Thank you for showing pictures of your Hepaticas.

The two nobilis have no names, just a collection number.

Carsten, japonica x pyrenaica is very impressive, especially the anthers. Probably it is better for the garden as japonica. I have a Hepatica nobilis var. pyrenaica x japonica in our garden that flowers well but it is sterile https://www.srgc.org.uk/forum/index.php?topic=17578.150  « Reply #156 on: March 16, 2020, 03:22:32 PM »
Is yours fertile?

Carsten, that Hepatica transsylvanica is very early. Is it ‘Blumenstadt Erfurt’?
Beautiful picture with the snow!
