Violet form of Gentiana verna is beautyful! Is there many of them? In Slovenia I haven't find it yet  :(

A nice memory of a lovely holiday spent with you and Sue in the Dolomites, Cliff.  I also remember how out of breath I was following your long legs up to the Bindleweg.

Incredible tour de force, thanks Cliff. 
But dear Mr Ranunculus, take another look at 29 and 39 - not Parnassia palustris, but a member of the Ranunculaceae.
