Scilla bifolia color forms

[Oakwood]

Been often traveling in Crimea I found some color forms of Scilla bifolia ssp. taurica. Also I put here some pics of other S. bifolia forms from different area. Pink, apricot, lilac and curved blue forms are from KUBALACH strain. White and blue on the same pic are from KARADAG strain.
S. bifolia Chris Favorite from Janis. S. bifolia forms are also from Kiev area woods and French Jura mnts. woods.

Dimitri, if you give the locations, you can be certain they will be plundered to end virused in some nursery.

What lovely forms, every one a treasure, but especially the pinks and apricot shades. A real pleasure to see them, thanks.

Of course not, Ezeiza. They wouldn't be plundered by golden diggers))) By these "location marks" you will hardly find the population. So, don't worry, be happy

You're welcome, Lesley!

I am happy, Dimitri, seeing your super photos, but professional plunderers are trained to find rare plants from slight hints. Among many examples, Biarum ditschianum and specially the scandal of the Peruvian orchid.

FABULOUS forms of a plant that is often unjustly ignored because it simply does its own thing almost anywhere it is put.
