Erythronium time in a cool and breezy central Scotland.

Erythronium Revolutum in the garden.

Fritillaria Sewerzowii in the garden.

Pseudotrilloum Rivale in the garden.

@dicentra33 Yes, I think so 🤔😁.

@ALTHESWAL Are those white Chionodoxa or a different species?

Early spring colour on one of our rockeries.

@Daphne_Meadows_ Yes, the pink one is Corydalis Solida Deiter Sachs. Solida types grow from a small bulb which multiplies and seeds around. Your blue one looks like a fibrous rooted Flexuosa type.

@ALTHESWAL I love that pink corydalis, is that the same variety as in your earlier picture - Firebird? I bought this blue one spontaneously last year, and to my delight it seems to be quite happy. I didn't know I could grow them here, and now I'm on the lookout for more varieties.

Corydalis Solida Firebird.

@brianparkerart I’m afraid I don’t know, I can’t remember where I bought it many years ago .

@ALTHESWAL where can i get one?
