I received the Spring catalogue from 'Rare Plants' this morning. I was delighted to learn that I can buy both 'Mangekyou'  & 'Yaegoromo' for a mere £395.00 each.

Diane, thank you.


So are you asking if H japonica is a good pollinator for H maxima? 

 Not quite true, I read that Hepatica maxima is a very good pollinator for Hepatica japonica. I'm curious - is this true?

Pechenochnitsa - this is a relatively accurate transcription of Russian names Hepatica nobilis. :)

Got my catalogue this morning as well. I was so disappointed when I saw the prices of all the lovely Hepaticas I would love to have  :'(. Oh well I will keep doing the lottery and hopefully on day I might win enough money that I won't care how much these lovely little plants would cost. ::) ::)

Hi
Edrom Nurseries have a sale on their Hepatica japonica's. There seems to be some big discounts, and discounts for quantity purchases.

Apologies if this is too much for you to resist.

Does anyone know if the Japanese hepaticas hybridise readily with the European H. nobilis?

Even the "common" Hepatica nobilis can be so attractive on a cold January day..   :)

I very well know Russian (better than English), but even then I didn't recognise that it means Hepatica before you explained.

Janis, to you as to the biologist, Latin names are much closer. :)
