Colchicum coustieri  cousturieri from seed collected on a small island south of crete is flowering now  - this name is now synonym for Colchicum cupanii ssp cupanii - I keep them separate as it is a much shorter plant here than other cupanii I grow.

It is a very beautiful plant Hans ! I think it is good to separate them , the neat and compact growth is a good  characteristic.

Thanks Kris, glad you like it!
Thanks Maggi for correcting the name - written it twice and both times wrong, not bad...
