Hepatica - Leberblümchen 2023

[Herman Mylemans]

Very nice to see Hepatica flowers. Are they flowering later this year also over there, or am I just imagining?

Leena, they are indeed flowering later, at least a week. Reason: low temperatures in the day and too little sun.

Every other day new seedlings open their flowers for the first time. Many are not very special and often even disappointing or are only the first step for the F2 generation. And sometimes you get a seedling that stands out. I spotted this one today.

Carsten, very impressive!

Carsten, wonderful! Getting results like this makes up for all the disappointing results and all the crossing and growing worthwhile.

Nice to see more and more Hepaticas in flower!

After snowmelt, we can also see the foliage of some Hepatica  americana, japonica and transsilvanica. Plus, in a small pile of pots I still have, the first H. japonica flowers buds are showing color! A step forward to the spring.

If you obtain one seedling like this from 1000 it is still worth the effort Carsten! The color and the velvety aspect, such a gorgeous little plant

I try to limit myself pictorially - difficult.
I have almost only nobilis, a few trans. and more recently a few hybrids. A lot has been found, but something new is constantly being created in the garden. Almost no labels, that's just the way it is....

And so on....

Really nice, different flower shapes and colours, and I liked especially the spotted one which had a nice shape, too.

Arthur, great Hepatica's! Thank you for showing them!

[MarcR]

Arthur, Very nice!

[Carsten]

Very nice different nobilis colours and shapes, Arthur!
Looking forward to see the next generation of seedlings, so stop weeding
