It looks like your prices are very similar to what is charged over here. I'd be willing to pay JPY 3000 for a flower like that. :D

Seems a very reasonable price compared to what we saw at some of the shows last year,  :o

Being a millionaire might not help with plant import regulations, but I'm sure it would make many other things a lot more pleasant.  ;)

Very true Peter. How much is Y3000 in UK pounds?

Until now there have been 5 Hepatica nobilis with filled flowers in my cross from this year, 4 blue and 1 pink all of them got pollen so I can use them in my crosses  :D My wife and I will call the pink one Cecilie, same name as our youngest daughter.

I have a large pot with c.100 Hepatica nobiis seedlings grown from parents of various colours and open pollinated. When can I knock them out and pot them on?

All of them are very beautiful Karl.  Cecilie is a stunning nobilis! 

Note to self: Check into obtaining fresh seed of H. japonica.

Tatsuo-san, thanks for sharing the hepatica exhibit picutres with us. I am always amazed by not only the beautiful flowers but also how they are presented, including the lovely pots and wooden stands. The total balance is beautiful. It looks almost like art, if you know what I mean...

Karl, I've been enjoying your pictures! Which are your favorite seedings rignt now?  ;)

Wonderful plants, Karl. Love your H. nobilis 'Cecilie'.
Of your H. japonica's, for me 'Hohobeni' is the nicest!
