Indoors, Polygala dalmaisiana has been flowering right through the winter.

Very pretty Ashley.

Ian, sorry but I have no good photos Eranthis sibirica, only now these.


But there is a great site - Nature of Baikal - http://nature.baikal.ru/

It is possible to see many interesting things, including Eranthis sibirica:

Looks like spring has started here!
It is fascinating which plants are flowering at the same time in the garden now:
Muscari inconstrictum (Cyprus form), Hyacinthella lazulina, Iris persica, Iris reticulata 'Halkis', Iris pamphylica, Iris atropurpurea (first Onco), Leucojum aestivum pulchellum, Galanthus elwesii monostictus (think it is a nice form), Narcissus hedraeanthus ... and some more.

Ian, this is very interesting and robust appearance. This rare plant, but very beautiful.. Not clearly, as it transfers warm winters, in places of its growth snow lies from the end of September on the end of May.

 Hoy, if you go - it is necessary beforehand to be vaccinated against tick-borne encephalitis - the danger is very great.(Tick-borne encephalitis - the deadly viral disease of the brain). I do not know whether I translated the title of this disease ... ???

Natalia, You translated perfect! I know what you mean and I am aware of the disease. :(
Can't be this summer as I am fully booked!

Hans,
those iris and other bulbs are superb but that Iris persica is beyond superb! What a colour! And the Iris atropurpurea!!!
Thanks for the pics!

Natalia,
you are teaching me new things - I also didn't know there was another white eranthis! (the ticks I'd heard about before ;D )
cheers

I hadn't heard of that species of Eranthis either.  I thought pinnatifida was the only white one.  Definitely one to keep an eye out for if seed is ever available.

Hans,

Those iris are superb.  I too was taken by that persica.  Glorious!!

It seems there are even more white Eranthis beside E. sibirica and E. pinnatifida as E. albiflora and E. stellata are also white flowered species.  I don't know of any differences though.

Hans, Iris pamphylica and Iris atropurpurea - just a delight!!

 In Russia grow 2 types of white Eranthis: E. sibirica in Siberia and E. stellata in the Far East.
 About the differences - they are little, but different. For example, E. pinnatifida has blue stamens ...
