Colchicum szovitsii -image taken a bit late in the day. In better light this form has a subtle palest pink suffusion to the petals.

Steve:

The light makes it look so much alive.  This is a very floriferous Colchicum.  Looks like 4-5 blooms per bulb.

Thanks Arnold.
Sadly this represents no great skill on my part -my clone is quite floriferous and vigorous. I got it from Frank Schmidt of Floralpin (www.floralpin.de). Frank produces some superb plants -even his commoner species have that extra quality not found in other suppliers.
