Pictures of plants you are growing from Archibald seed

JJA 689.270 Muscari discolor, from the Seed List September, 2008

689.270 : MUSCARI DISCOLOR (Subgen. Botryanthus) Turkey, Mardin, N of Mardin. 1100m. Among talus on steep limestone slopes. (This is the 'true' plant. Haussknecht's type-collection was from Mardin & this taxon appears to be restricted to the hills in southern Urfa & Mardin provinces, along the north edge of the Syrian Desert running towards the Iraqi border. Extremely early flowering (February with us) & about 10cm. tall with racemes of bicolored, open-mouthed bells, the blackish blue of the base contrasting with the white of the apex, which occupies almost half the length of each flower.)

From Erle in Anglesey:

Corydalis bracteata
JJA 331.250

[Mark Griffiths]

Not sure if this belongs here, it's Archibald seed but not one of J&Js collections.

366.510 : CYCLAMEN PERSICUM Greece, Rhodes. Ex an E. Sewell coll. (From an excellent form, dwarfer & altogether more compact than usual. This flowers profusely and always excites attention when exhibited.

There has been some variation in leaves, all the flowers are white with a pale pink nose.

Just noticed this Erythronium flowering on the raised bed today, Erythronium klamathense JJA 1.351.700, seeds sown 28 Sept 2010.

Cyril, that looks like a hybrid you have raised, we have many similar all are nice plants some exceptional.

Erythronium klamathense has plain green leaves, a white flower with yellow centre - I showed it in last weeks bulb log .

Ian, thanks for the link to the bulb log showing Erythronium klamathense.  Interesting that the Archibald seeds have produced hybrids.  I wonder if the other parent is E. hendersonii or E. revolutum.

[Ian Y]

From the look I would suspect that E. revolutum is one of the parents.
I have tried to cross E. klamathense with E. revolutum  both ways in the past and both failed so if this is that cross it gives me hope to try again.

There are natural hybrids between E. klamathense and E. hendersonii at Pilot Rock on the Oregon/California border. Mark Turner has a photo on his web site at http://www.pnwflowers.com/photos/may/040512PilotRock. But, I agree with Ian, it looks more like a hybrid involving E. revolutum - especially if the anthers are somewhat flattened, as they appear...

[Maggi Young]

The Hybrid Mark Turner shows here  http://www.pnwflowers.com/photos/may/040512PilotRock/0405897 is a real beauty.

Perhaps this is another cross for Ian to try!
