Hi Gabriela. The seed arrived fine.  But are you color blind?   :)
Mauve (Listeni/ˈmoʊv/, mohv;[3]) is a pale purple color.  Wikipedia
That hep. is blue.

I have been called colour blind before and I don't mind  ;D I only agree I should have said deep purple (but still not blue for me  :)
By any other colour...a most spendid Hepatica!

 Colour  descriptions and perceptions are as individual as scents, I think!  :D ;D
We're all agreed on how lovely the  flower is, that's unanimous!

As purple as it gets!  :)

Thanks a lot, I felt a pinch in my heart! Is there any chance you would share few seeds next year?
I am open to anything - buying, trading for other seeds...I collect H. americana in many blue shades, there is also a form with extra petals if you would like to use it for breeding.
