      I like the Chionodoxa, Louise. I have it in my garden too. In fact everybody round here does - it grows everywhere like a wild flower, but it's so pretty.

      Thank you all, it might be small but it's my paradise :D

      I have a front and a back, both roughly 30'x30'.
      The front is a cottage garden style and the back is lawns and shrubs, so 2 very different spaces - which is nice !

      Lovely pictures Louise - I have never grown any of those. I especially love the Pulsatilla.

      I adore them, Peter and luckily they like it here and i have clumps everywhere !
      I noticed yesterday that one clump has 2 different coloured flowers on it - will try to photograph it later on :)

      Lovely photos Louise especially the Sodenella which I have grown twice and failed so you must have the perfect conditions for them:dbgrtmb: Even the Pusatilla we have tried and they gave up the ghost as well but like you we can grow Chionodoxa and the Epemediums but don't think we have enchanted.Also have the alpine Aquilegia Cameo Blue and White so we both have good tastes in plants :yess:

      Many thanks for sharing them with us all and would enjoy seeing any others you have :)
