It is getting colder again, maybe because easter is approaching, but the

Franz, your rockery is as glorious as your meadow it seems and your Saxifraga are just wonderful  :D

Saxifraga-federici-augusti hyp. (grisebachii)

Is there a difference between these two?  I just love the shot of carmine red on the stem sitting atop the rosette

Robin,
The points of the leaves at the flower stalk are more green with the Hyp.
