Hepatica nobilis var. acuta  is indeed acutiloba and Hepatica nobilis var. obtusa is americana
Gabriela, as Herman wrote, this should be the right name for now. On my labels it´s still acutiloba and americana ...
I don´t run a nursery but half of the greenhouse is dedicated to Hepaticas and the seedlings - and they require more space each year  ;)

Herman: Your nobilis plena is outstanding!

Thank you Herman and Carstens - I am following close the work done on Hepatica nomenclature; not that is something soon to be clarified  ;D
At this time there are still disagreements although all last molecular studies show them as separate species. I was just curious to know because following this line of thought H. japonica should be called H. nobilis var. japonica.

Anyway, it doesn't really matter; in NA everyone calls them americana and acutiloba. If we would be to follow Flora of NA the names are Anemone americana and A. acutiloba, even more unacceptable :-X

Snowdrops are basically over, so I had to find a new addiction - Hepatica. My first find:

Why might it be that there are so many plants with different forms in Poland?
Over here I have never seen double Hepatica in the wild, only different colour forms.

Leena,
that particular plant was found in Czech Republic, not in Poland, although I found a photo of a H. nobilis flore pleno from Poland several years ago.

I tried to contact the person who did that discovery and photo, but the e-mail was not working and the person moved to another city, so I had no means of contacting that person. I went there several years ago, but I found nothing interesting. One day I would like to go there again, who knows, maybe I will be more lucky than.

I have one plant that has pointed tips. Does such petals shape count as something interesting?

1. Hepatica x schlyteri has long lasting flowers and the old leaves are still in good condition.
2-3. Two plants from one seed batch. They both have large leaves that stay green all winter unlike most H. nobilis.
4. A pink nobilis, also with old leaves in good condition.
5. H. nobilis plena blue Czech Form - this plant too have large leaves that stay green past flowering time.

I don't even know how to call them anymore; beautiful is not enough :)
The 'pink clover' has super interesting foliage!

I am speechless, they are all so lovely.
The picture with blue double with yellow Helloborus in the background is great, and also the blue seedling with  coloured anthers, I have never seen one like it.
