Thank You, Leucogenes for Your comment, I have seen, that you are not far away from Döbrichau and Torgau. We start here next year in 9. and 10. march 2019 the "1. Frühlingsblüher-Ausstellung" in Torgau and we invite You to visite! Greetings Harald

Thank you so much for inviting me... if I have time, I'll stop by.
I like to repeat myself...your copy of Genthiana scraba looks wonderful. Have you cultivated this clone from wild seeds?

Panayoti Kelaidis of Denver Botanic Gardens is well travelled ( to say the least!) and a popular speaker around the world too - so it is no surprise that he has some super photos to share - this is "A gentian memento from last April in the Lesser Caucasus of Georgia above Bakuriani: Gentiana angulosa above the tree line."

And here is Panayoti with Zdenek Zvolanek ( wearing a bow-tie) in the DBG a few weeks ago.... ZZ wrote :
Panayoti Kelaidis, the Heart Ace of DBG, arranged for us a great speaking trip around many new crevice gardens in Colorado, Utah, Wyoming and New Mexico. It was perfectly organised and we met a lot of enthusiasts. He is a great visionary and plantsman."

What two majestic pictures...Maggie.
I know Panayoti Kelaidis unfortunately only from pictures. But in every photo he makes a friendly face...He seems to be a happy being.
By chance I have just studied his article (NARGS) about the Species Townsendia for further research.

I am fortunate to have known Panayoti for a long time - we first met face to face in 199. This plantsman carries a wealth of knowledge and is also a most charming and friendly person.

I envy you for the personal acquaintance... Maggi.
The same is certainly true for ZZ. I saw him at a meeting last fall...and I'm frozen in awe.
I just thought of a little play on words for ZZ... I think it's time for an increase in appreciation... We should call him "ZZ TOP" in the future. 😊

Great idea! ZZ Top it is!

With this Gentiana, I'm not sure what kind it is. G. acaulis or G. occidentalis. The label has disappeared. Maybe someone can solve the riddle...
Thanks

Really...Vincent. Only after your advice and with some magnification I discovered the small mushroom. Very well observed.
