All beautiful .... and thank you for helping me update my knowledge.  I thought that Crocus yalovensis looked like what I until recently called Crocus pestalozzae var caeruleus and then changed to Crocus violaceus.  After a little research I found the article in IRG that tells of the latest name change for my old friend!  At least I now know my eyes did not deceive me  ;D

Yes lots of changes among iridaceae, and its only the start of a new world for botanic.
DNA is now widely used in phylogeny, all what we learnt between the 70's and 90's is now obsolete.

Recently i was talking with a friend about Lysimachia arvensis, he didn't even know of the change 20 years ago :)
Even the book still mention Anagallis.

Botanic is a living science, what we thought right yesterday is wrong tomorrow  ;D

Irises now are proposed to split into 23 genus... See Phytotaxa, 232 (1): 001-078 - MANUEL B. CRESPO, MARIO MARTÍNEZ-AZORÍN & EVGENY V. MAVRODIEV
Can a rainbow consist of a single colour? A new comprehensive generic arrangement of the ‘Iris sensu latissimo’ clade (Iridaceae), congruent with morphology and molecular data.

Nothing special, but beautiful nonetheless.. Crocus korolkowii (of the Agalik persuasion).
The third photo shows my Crocus baytopiorum. In my opinion, one of the most exquisite species reminiscent of porcelain.
