Scilla bifolia is opening apace this week for me.

Fred is that the pink form,i am colour blind and can't quite pick out the shade.

[fredg]

Yes Dave, it's pink 

I have the blue too but that needs a better pic

Now renamed as Oziroe biflora rosea.
This was Chionodoxa but is now Scilla luciliae Valentine's Day, only a week late.

[Diane Clement]

Now renamed as Oziroe biflora rosea.  

I think there's a mixup here.  The name Scilla bifolia is still OK, in all its colour forms (phew!).  
Scilla biflora is now Oziroe biflora.  Oziroe is a South American genus.

I was searching for an ID for this one....We have seen this Scilla in NE Turkey on Kaçkar Mts near Ayder . I think the height was around 2300m .
Many thanks.   

Scilla armena.

Scilla peruviana

Janis,

I can see why, with the lovely dark stem in combination with those beautiful striped flowers.  The flowers themselves remind me of Scilla tubergeniana (syn mischtschenkoana), but taller and with that wonderful dark stem.  Very nice, and new to me.  Thanks.

And thanks to all the others posting.  Some wonderful Scilla in here, that is for sure.  So many to choose from.
