This I. winogradowii comes from Janis.

I hope it is still on his current List it's a beauty.

I'm afraid it's not on this years list.
He listed it last year at 30 € and apparantly sold out...

Probably as well Luc. This means the Nicholson household can continue to eat meat and buy gas for another year ;D

Is this a new variety, Luit? I do not know the name... it is very beautiful, so dark.

Maggi, this one was found in I. ret. George. Interesting is that it was found at two different places.
Mr. Willem van Eeden (yes, winner of many good Crocus) suggested a name but there was already a name for the plant given by someone else.

Good Katherine Hodgkins Luc.
Has anyone any updates on the Katherine Hodgkins which came up darker blue last year. Are they the same this year, are they still surviving.

There were some pictures posted last year that had suspious looking flowers, I was wondering what had happened to them. I will try and look for the postings.
