I haven't  found any dark mark tips seedlings yet, but did find these lighter tips this past spring. These two have big Dutch type flowers.

1-2 crocus seedlings

Thanks, like that one also Janis.

Didn't get around to taking many pictures this past spring of seedlings, but did take a few of my grass bank project that I have been working on for the past few years now.......

This summers project was to dig half of the bank and replant crocus bulbs. Seeds will be sprinkled on the other half of the bank.......

Lovely start to the season, Guff. When did you lose the snow?

Thanks Maggi, in a few years it should look nice. Still lots popping up, the squirrels seem to like pulling the flowers off.......

Had snow on Easter, second picture is a white tipped.

It's hard not to think that squirrels and birds will behead flowers "just for fun" - whatever the reason it is a disappointment when it happens.
