Leena
Do the white hepaticas set seed?

No, they are double and sterile.

Hi Everyone
nice hepaticas. our hepatica season is just starting. Yesterday I saw some just starting to flower by internet correspondence. We are still in India and hopefully some will be flowering when I return back.
Gabriela your dark Americana" purpilicious"(did you name it)is lovely. Did you distribute the seed before. If not and if you are going to sell some I want to have some. Such a dark , lovely colour.

Gabriella and Leena,

I enjoyed the lovely blooms you both have posted .

Here in Oregon, we are 3-4 weeks behind you.  The nature sculpted tree  was very interesting and strangely beautiful.

Thank you both for posting!

Paeonia tenuifolia is the one most commented on by passers-by;

It really is an impressive old plant with many flowers!

The funny thing is my Peony 'Shima Nishiki' is also only in red this season.

Herman, you must have had a really good time.

Beautiful Hepaticas, Gabriela. Here they are just only starting to flower.

Hepatica transsilvanica
Hepatica japonica 'Hakurin' and in the background 'Shirayuki', which has become so big. It grows in the highest spot in that bed, and clearly likes it place. I don't dare divide it when it is growing so well now.

Leena, it was indeed a very pleasant trip! Today here I already harvest seeds in the alpine house! Outside it is cold and wet!
It is nice to see that japonica is growing so well in your garden!

Trillium nivale which I got from a kind forumist maybe 8 years ago.
Seedlings from the previous.

Leena, very nice nivale and you are lucky that you have seedlings. I have never had good seeds.
