Poylgonatum are  most variable plants and it is great to see so many mentions of them in the forum - a favourite thread of mine is this one :

Those Hepatica nobilis doubles are very nice! Does the second one from the top (the lavender one) have a name? They are all pretty but that one is my favorite! ;)

Those Hepatica nobilis doubles are nice! ::)

do they sometimes make simple flowers with seeds?
 do their offspring have chances to be double?

Hello veronique
Sometimes there are some seeds. However, seedlings do not repeat the fullness of flowers. It's a lottery, sometimes it happens

You grow a really outstanding collection of plants, Kot! Your hepatica are beautiful, are they all European ones? The blue semidouble one with the white blotches is especially charming. Yet Your collection of polygonatums is very impressing , too.  What species or hybrid is vlasny selekt? And does the dark-leaved hybrid set seed?

Title: Re: Bulbs and flowers from Kot's Polish garden
Post by: kot on January 28, 2018, 07:40:47 AM

Thank you for your kind words. In my collection there are only European species Hepatica. Japanese varieties are less resistant to frost. Polygonatum are hybrids and grown from seeds do not have the characteristics of mother plants. It propagates only vegetatively. Only species such as Polygonatum pratti can be multiplied from seeds

Title: Re: Bulbs and flowers from Kot's Polish garden
Post by: kot on January 29, 2018, 08:14:14 AM

Hello Leena
From the forms full of Hepatica I have three forms full and semi-double H.transilvanica. H. japonica I do not grow because they are not resistant to frost. Remind me in the season I will send you seeds from my semi-complete form H. nobilis. I also collect bulbs and Paeonia but only wild forms.

Thank you for posting. So many interesting plants. I believe I have seen all your posts.

Even more interesting for me as your garden is situated in similar conditions as mine. It is a good inspiration for me for new plantings.

I have tried so many plants and failed, including easy commercial ones. You've shown Sanguinaria canadensis, nice big clumps, cultivars etc. My plain sanguinaria should be perfectly suited to my local conditions and it is barely surviving.

Please, keep sharing your experience. If you need any help, let me know.

Hello Jacek
Sanguinaria must grow in a shady and humid place in the humus soil. A condition for good development is to keep the green leaves until winter. If the leaves will dry in July, the plant will not grow well and bloom poorly.

Excellent clump of sanguinaria Plena! I would wish to have similar.

I knew this is a plant of moist woods. I have all in place except the water. But there is no true drought - I do water my garden. Yet, to make it cool and moist I would have to water every day in summer - I do not provide such a service to my plants. Despite that, I am able to grow many plants of moist woodland without problems: Jeffersonia dubia, Corydalis bushii. Even Corydalis flexuosa survived 10 years. May be sanguinaria needs even more water.

What I find very interesting in your pictures - is the heterogeneity of the plants you grow successfully - from moist woodland to central Asian steppe, from lowlands to the mountains. And many of them seem to be growing in the open garden, not in pots. I wonder how to achieve this effect.

Best wishes
