Yes Brian, I`m happy because it is a nivalis.
Today we had sun, so the little emerald is ringing now.

Goodness Hagen, Grüner Frühaufsteher is a little star let alone an early riser! 

Green Tear is selling for over £300 on ebay but I think Grüner Frühaufsteher looks almost better.

I find the same with Selina Cords, yet when it was bought it was twice as tall, hopefully as the bulbs get older and older they will be taller plants but no sign of it yet.

I think if I had spent £300 on Green Tear, I would be very sad to see Grüner Frühaufsteher!
