I googled malyi 'Ballerina' and found last year's post. Is the purple streak variable from one year to the next?

Andrew:
Crocus versicolor JMH 8215

Armin:
Last night and most of the day were just awful in Germany - windy & wet. Many crocus species did fall over :( But ~10.00AM this morning the sun suddenly break through for an hour and the little beauties did show their best...and I became wet and dirty knees creeping on the lawn to take the best possible shots.

Also a species appeared which I can't identify...Please investigate.
Noteable: the "Romance" with 12 petals...
C.versicolor, which I hope has no virus...
Lastly, I hope this is "E.P. Bowles" now, wasn't in flower last time...

Armin:
more pics :)

Armin:
Today I got an outburst of enthusiasm when looking into my garden this morning. 8) Overnight clouds and rain were gone, replaced by a very sunny late winter day. Temperatures peaked up to +14°C. All crocus opened their pedals widly, bees and flys appeared in masses helping me to polinate my crocuses. The best day since weeks of cold rain, mist and darkness!

Some more snapshots...
C.unknown - fully open today
C.biflorus - 1st time in flower, very tiny, just ~3cm in height
C.biflorus - top view
C.dalmaticus Petrovac - small bunch
C.versicolor - open
C.versicolor Picturatus
