M. leucostomum is also the first in my garden, first flower started in November !
This one is planted near the house wall, others planted more in the open start just now.

Isn't that beautiful? Such delicately coloured marking, each flower is like a perfect little porcelain bell.

Yes, it is, Matt. Sometimes such close-up pictures attract us more than the real plants.

Oron

Bellevalia sitiaca is a beauty - quite unlike most Bellevalia.

I am awaiting the flowering of a couple of unknown Bellevalia, but I don't think I will be lucky to have this beauty among them.

It's a nice one isn't it David.  Looks like you may have some seed-set too.
I'm pollinating by hand whenever I think of it, but results are patchy maybe because of fluctuating temperatures.

Thanks Ashley and Yann. It usually takes me a year longer than anyone else for virtually everything, neglect probably!
