Amazing flowers. Were any of the winners your plants YT?

No, of course not, Ron ;D I'm also interested in these little gems but not a maniac as the prize winners. They are totally hepatica addicts  ::) ;D ;D

I'll post some more later ;)

Great to see the plants and the wonderful prizes they are awarded.

"Manten-no-Hoshi, The honorary chairman prize 2012" is very beautiful. Such a deep velvet blue.  8)

Cheers! Maggi :D The exact meaning of "Manten-no-Hoshi" is "a skyfull of stars", but it seems better to say "a skyfull shower of meteors" or simply "fireworks" I suppose ;)

Thank you for showing us these amazing plants.

I am glad they are many thousands of miles away or I might be tempted - and a pension will only stretch so far   :)

What beauties :o   Thank you for showing them to us Tatsuo.
'Jakkoh' and 'Manten-no-Hoshi' are especially attractive I think.

And what a great forum, that we can share around the world like this.

Art, I'll post pics of some hepatica shop later. Wait and see ;)

Ron, that's simple! I took the pics of my favourite flowers ;D ;D ;D They divide hepaticas into many different contest sections by flower forms and there are lots of gold medal holders ;)

You're welcome, Ashley! It's great fun for me, too :) :) :)

Wonderful, Tatsuo! I would pick a favorite, but I just can't! Those blue ones are stunning (blue has always been my favorite colour too!  ;)), the more I look at these plants, the more I love them...
I'm looking forward to seeing some pics of the shop....and to see what you have bought  ;)  :P

Karl,

wonderful plants. Does 'Alansdal' stay that dark or does it get whiter in the centre as the flower ages?
