Agreed Maggi! Some people have 'Many years worth of experience' and some people have 'One years experience many times'.  :-X :-X
Michael obviously comes in the first category!

No wisdom; no hope; no chance, just one of life's losers...all contributions gratefully and unselfconsciously received :P ;D :D

Michael,

Superior black and double yellow.  Good deep colour on both.  Excellent!!

Some beauties posted throughout the rest of this topic as well.  Not too far off hellebore time here now..... only a few months.  ;D

The first one came with a collection of 5 supposed double seedlings (unflowered) from Ashfield a number of years ago.  I disposed of the doubles to make room for more meconopsis but kept this one.  I like its colour and the pale green of its bracts and new leaves.
The other two I grew from Ashfield seed.  The black is nodding and very cup shaped compared to Michael's.
