Hepatica japonica seedlings in the garden. Flowers are covered with some saharian dust we had last week.

In 2016 I crossed a white japonica with violet anthers and a bicoloured white/blue pyrenaica. For sure, the japonica had some double genes to pass and the pyrenaica added a bit of a gradient.

Some details of the flowers ...

Very special results in crossing. :)
You have a nice display of Hepatica flowers in the garden in sun. I especially liked the violet blue japonica.

Herman, your H.maxima seedlings look so nice and big.

Carsten, very beautiful Hepatica’s. I have troubles with japonica in the garden even with pubescens. I can’ t keep them alive. Maybe the reason is our wet mild winters.

A half-filled seedling shows the following structures when it fading. Are they pollen?

They look degenerated but you may try to cut the anthers with a sharp knife or scalpel to see if pollen comes out after a while. Should be done when warm enough or indoors. You may also find other flowers (next year?) that have different anthers to try this again. Some semiplenas only produce pollen every other year and only at some flowers, so you might have to wait until the plant grows bigger?

Thank you very much. I will put the opened anthers under the microscope. 😉

Hepatica maxima ex BSWJ 4344 has germinated after 2 winters, the first leaves are much larger than with the other Hepatica's.

Worthy of the 'maxima' name Herman! Very cute.

Nice selections Carsten. Hardly anything compares with Hepatica flowering under the spring sun  :)
