Thank you Gabriela.

Gabriela, the pink multipetale are very beautiful! My multipetale seedlings are all blue.

Gabriela, the pink multipetale are very beautiful! My multipetale seedlings are all blue.

I also show it last year Herman, a chance seedling (actually a few, all similar) from the seeds that also gave the blue multipetala plants.
And I called it Hepatica nobilis 'Walter'. I don't know how seedlings from it will look. Working on it

The Hepatica season is coming to an end because of the warm weather. Only on more shaded locations there are few flowers.
From last week, a truly blue Hepatica americana and a multipetal Hepatica americana 'Preciosa' (my naming).

Gabriela, I love that multipetal flower! I have similar from your seeds, it is only now opening, but it has flowered already in couple of years.

Snow and very cold nights are finally over, though temperatures may dip below zero during nights but days are warm and sunny.
Everything is happening very fast now. Corydalises are in full flower, as are most Hepaticas.

These next ones are flowering for the first time and were sown from Dryad seeds as multipetal nobilis. They turned out very nice.





Hepatica acutiloba





Hepatica transsilvanica 'Lilacina'

My biggest H.pubescens



Hepatica japonica ex Ryaugetsu, really nice and different.

Leena , great Hepatica's and a lot of flower. Here it is to wait till next year. A lot of my Hepatica's in the garden didn't flower as usual maybe because of the very wet winter and spring.

A single outlier starts things off

Arthur, here also are some buds waiting for more sun!

[Starking007]

On the other hand, a few weeks of rest would still be good!

[Herman Mylemans]

Arthur, around this time Hepatica transsilvanica 'Blumenstadt Erfurt' is flowering in the garden. But now there is always a dark sky and frequently rain, so he is waiting for the sun.

It is nice to see a new spring of Hepaticas from you all.
Here Hepaticas have already big buds, but winter is still only coming and a long wait for the spring here.
