If you look carefully you'll notice a bevy of little seedlings popping up all around the mother plant! Hurray...after growing C. coum here and there all over my garden, I finally stumbled on a spot it loves!

Crocus 'Advance' I was none too crazy about this crocus the first few years, but it's growing on me...

One of innumerable cultivars of I. reticulata I keep acquiring. Some love my garden. Some don't...

Corydalis paczoskii
|
This spreads a tad more than I'd like--so I put it off in a corner where it can't do too much damage...

Dionysia aretioides

I know it looks pitiful, but it did make it through the winter. I fantasize about it getting to be basketball size like the plants at Gothenburg!

Colchicum soboliferum
|
Given to my by Lee Raden from Pennsylvania decades ago--this has persisted and spread a bit. Very similar to the last, which was also a gift only from John Baumfalk in Kansas. Plants are the best mementos!

Draba hispanica
|
The most vigorous of drabas for me--it's seeding all over one berm. And on to the next!

Daphne mezereum 'Album'

I am surprised this is blooming: we had subzero weather not too many weeks ago!

Erythronium caucasicum

Almost missed getting a picture of this, it went over so fast in the spell of 75F days,,

This was rescued out of Sandy Snyder's buffalo grass lawn where there were dozens seeding.

Thrilled this has come back so strong! Have to look up the name!

| Colchicum szovitsii |
I have two very different clones of these: will the real szovitsii please stand up?
![]() |
Apparently now this is Colchicum vernum?
|
It will remain Bulbocodium vernum in my heart, but what the heck does it have to do with Narcissus bulbocodium?

Erythronium dens-canis
|
Not always blooming reliably, I'm happy to have three open this year...

From the Caucasus: I don't remember seeing this shade there. Most were a more purple pink.

Iris 'Katharine's Gold' with Scilla mistchenkoana

They look even better palling around with a "tommy" (Crocus tommasinianus)
