Now, that's a wonderful way to start the 2010 Hepatica thread. Spring seems awfully far away at the moment but there is hope

I agree, Gunilla, a grand beginning!
Tell me, Chris, is that Mevrouw Vermeire wearing a new hat in honour of your birthday today?

only when there is some sun the flowers opens for a few hours, this morning it is verry cold (-5°C), I hope it will be a little bit warmer than most of the plants will flower, lost a few buds eaten by mice I think.
thank you for the nice card Maggy,
just a year ago I came back from Japan with these nice things:
Hepatica asiatica 'Hatsu Hinode'
Hepatica asiatica 'Hayato'

Some very lovely ones there.
I was impressed with the red "Hayato". Very unusual color but the henry was very nice as well.
Thanks for showing

Chris,
what a rare treasure! The contrast between the flower and its stamens is amazing. I take it you are or will be hybridizing with it.
