From YT ( Tatsuo) :

A seedling of Crocus laevigatus from JJA Seeds is blooming now. Its flower is very small. The plastic label in third picture is 15mm in width. Perhaps some more seedlings will flower next season.

347.421 : CROCUS LAEVIGATUS Greece, Crete, Mt. Vouvala. Ex an A. Edwards coll. (An exquisitely tiny (though not quite so small as an Omalos coll. we grow) white flowered form, sometimes with fine maroon-black feathering outside.)

Paeonia rockii



One of two seedlings which germinated from six seeds sown in winter 1998 (I think).
The label is worn but appears to read JCA 4.581.500. I believe this might have been wild-collected seed from Gansu in China but I could be wrong.

In beauty this can't quite compare with Steve's Paeonia rockii, but it is nice to have a true example of wild collected Helleborus orientalis (JJA 562.405). I have to admit to a prediliction for species over hybrids (even though so many hybrid hellebores are superb garden plants), which is why Jim's seed lists were so unique. We grow this completely isolated from any other hellebores but as far as visitors to the garden are concerned it won't make much impression!

yes, that was something I also appreciated about J&J's lists - the chance to get pure species and forms, like Lewisia cotyledon, Silene hookerii etc.

Friends - I am tidying up this thread by removing any posts that are not directly important to the Archibald connection.
Most of the photos here are also shown elsewhere in the forum so you can direct your comments about them in those threads- Thanks!

JJA 360.600 Cyclamen coum, dark nose
No data. A very interesting race which was received among a batch of C. coum variants, wild collected in various localities in Transcaucasia & sent to Mike Salmon by the Russian botanist Zinaida Artiushenko, in the 1960's. (more details on the JJA master list)
