Here is one of my favourite seedlings.  Sorry the photo got a bit squashed when being shrunk!

The sun shines today and the Erythroniums are reaching a peak flowering.

Three of our Craigton forms and hybrids.
Erythronium Craigton Flower ( a selection of E. americanum) , Erythronium Craigton Cover Girl( a revolutum hybrid) and Erythronium Craigton Cream( a helenae hybrid).

I planted this more than a decade ago and it promptly disappeared, leading me to believe that I couldn't grow Erythronium here, or at least not in this bed. Suddenly it has reappeared in the middle of the Daphne!

Can anyone (Ian Y?) please ID?

Looks like a californicum hybrid, Ralph.


edit -  Ian arrives and says he thinks more tuolumnense involved -  perhaps 'Kondo'   for example.
He reckons 'Citronella'

One of the tuolumnense hybrids John, most likely 'Citronella' other parent likely to be californicum.

Thanks. I do remember buying `Pagoda`. Could it be that ?

Could well be Pagoda - esp. with the plain leaves - same cross as Kondo, I think.

Yesterday I saw these white Erythronium blooming around an apartment complex in SE Michigan.  The words were filled with the typical yellow ones but a patch in the "lawn" had exclusively white flowers.
the photos were difficult due to the very windy conditions.

is this a special variety?
