verry nice color, Michael, for my H. nobilis it is to early they are all outside, here 2 others opened today

i really like the first one, chris--just a hint of colour..

i'm not familiar with where all the hepatica forms come from--are these all hybrids, or selections from natural mutations or all of the above?

At last a little warmth and sunshine has had the desired effect.Here are a few of the first.Nothing special,most of them being seedlings from my own plants apart from Benikanzan,Craemar and transylvanica alba

Well you cant say that these Hepatica flowers are nothing special, everyone is lovely. What a fantastic collection. I bought a few at our Dunblane day and I hope that my plants will look like yours someday.

Gail and all the others thanks for the lovely photos
I liked the H. nobilis with marbled foliage and thinks it is nice to see the foliage on the exhibition plants.

Great plants and a true blessing to be able to enjoy this over the internet.

Kind regards

I second that motion, such elegant flowers beautifully presented above fine foliage... oo la la!
The white and green in the flowers play off the white and green marbled leaves.

Very nice one Chris
It is a bit like the erathis pin.... but that does not have this fancy foliage.
Very nice with this marbled foliage.
Hope You can take time to show the others also in flower.
In the north there is still snow on top of he plants so we like to see some of the ones flowering.
Best regards
