Whoooooooooop! I finally got good colour rendition on a photo of this plant's flowers. Typically it's with my sub $160 field camera. Cheap and excellent! A small section of one of my trays ( undrained )

They like to be cool. Even in the UK they are better grown outside out of direct sunlight. Winter temperatures need to be cold when the plant will form a hibernacula and gemmae.

Hi Fred - Beautiful flowers they are too! Worth the trouble to get them right it seems. And a great advert for growing this species. Thanks for sharing!

Hope, if the seeds I got germinate... that they may live well! or else I would need to go dump them in a high mountain a couple of months each year! (interesting experiment this one would be..)
