Chionodoxa Valentine Day
Hyacinthella heldreichii
Scilla biflora Norman Stevens
Scilla melaina
All flowering for me today.
And before you get excited about the Hyacinthella, the gravel you can see is less than 1/2 inch across.

That color blue always gives my mood an upswing. I love Spring!

What a beautiful shade of blue! Mine never seem to be that dark of a color.

Really lovely Eric. Blue flowers are an all time favourite of mine. My scillia are much paler than yours but they are a very welcome sight after all the snow.

Very nice! I love small little flowers. There is something so peaceful about them. The blues on your plants are very striking and beautiful. Wonderful..thank you for sharing.
