Thank you - time constraints and a feeling that you'll have seen them all before mean I am limiting my posts to the more noteworthy plants. 

(It's still lovely to see what everyone else has in flower though  :) )

Your crocus season is well on the way Ruben.  So much colour already.  Thank you for showing.  Here it is bitterly cold and nothing is moving.

Amazing pictures and species! From seeds or from bulbs?

Thank you Corrado.
It's a mix, actually.
herbertii and gargaricus are from seed (sown 2010), whereas the others were obtained as bulbs.
