Very windy here and rather cold in the morning, but this shrub beats everything at he moment.
Alas a bit blurred through the wind:
Prunus Pandora
Luit van Delft, right in the heart of the beautiful flowerbulb district, Noordwijkerhout, Holland.

Sadly Luit died on 14th October 2016 - happily we can still enjoy his posts to the Forum

Great cyp shot, can't believe they are flowering in UK, mine are just showing their noses above ground!
Hristo passed away, after a long illness, on 11th November 2018. His support of SRGC was  much appreciated.

I really like that pink Geranium! Is the Cyp potted? Mine hasn't even poked their noses up yet...

Point taken, Mark ;D I had forgotten what species of Merendera it was, and figured the other two were self-explanatory.

By the way is Eranthis stellata difficult to grow?

It is easy to grow it from tubers. But it is difficult to reproduce it from seed. This plant is extremely rare even here.

I've been told many many times that I'm touched Dave  ;D

BTW I have Cypripedium that are just showing their noses and others ready to burst bud.
