These are one or two precocious flowers that were persuaded to open by the recent sunshine.As there is not a lot else to brighten up the the short Winter days I thought the were worth getting the camera out for.
They are Acutiloba(blue form)-Goshozakura-Kyumi-lilac seedling of my own and pubescens 'Tenginbai

Wow,wow and wow again. Having seen your pictures last year John I had intended to buy some plants and have a go myself. Needless to say that was one of the many things I never got round to. I intend to put that right this year.

By the way the hepatica.se web site seems to have disappeared, what a pity.

John what a delight to see this flowers it is really true beauty. Very well done with the seedling it is a good looking one :) Did You get more of them and if so are they very different? Thanks for sharing it takes away a bit of my homesickness to Sweden.  :'( ;D ;D

David I just went to hepatica.se and it is there  :obut it only has Autumn delivery if that is what You are unhappy with. :-\

Lesley it is the proverb I hate most in English >:( and I am very happy that we do not have it in Swedish ;) and I have not heard/understood it in Portuguse  ::)

Thanks for this and hope to see more 8)
Kind regards

Try this link

http://www.hepatica.se/undermenyer/buy.htm

The website says plants will be delivered October/November so it may be too late this year.

It's also worth noting that they accept payment in Euros and GB Pounds.

When I had to transfer some money in Euros on a different site, my bank charged a hefty fee.

Mark are You sure it is not there ? I have been looking around in the one they have hepatica.se and it seems to work?

Interesting that they are going to have more sorts  8)

He has changed the web address. I have the new one and was asked to give my opinions but I'm not sure he wants it publicised just yet
