Natalia,
Thanks for the information.  I will try to introduce some of my seedlings with little protection and see how they do.  It will be another year or two before they start flowering, though. 

I might give your method of propagating with the leaf node a try with my H. acutiloba this year.  Right now, I am putting bags over the seeds forming on my potted hepatics to capture as many seeds as possible.

Last year's finds Hepatica nobilis in my garden.
For comparison cultural and found in last year plena forms Hepayica nobilis the flower from the young plant of the cultural form having 1 socket was used. The bush of the found form had also 1 socket. The sizes of a flower: the cultural form 1-1,5cm, the found form - 2,2 cm.

Very nice, I love the colour variations in the single flowers..

Yes, color double Hepatica such - light kobalt-blue with more light center, and the second double Hepatica - a lilac shade, but me wasn't possible to render color precisely...
