On a much happier note, the #omphalodes-verna-alba seems to be getting its feet well and truly under the table 💚
I didn’t know there was a white one, the blue you gave me is huge now, I’m going to split it after flowering 🤍💙
I didn’t either until I saw it at Harrogate 😍 “After flowering”, that’s an interesting concept with these fabulous plants 🤔😂 @pelly
Good point 😂😂😂
Oh I like that one 👌
It’s a sweetie isn’t it Sue 😍 @suerichards
Love the white 🤍 mine haven’t really got going yet 🤔
Mine didn’t do much last year but really beginning to spread now. Hopefully yours will too soon Rachel 💚 @rachelbrooks
Mine have been in for a few years and this is the worst they’ve done...hardly putting on any growth at all 🤔
Oh! I think they need a stern talking to then 💁♀️ @rachelbrooks
I might take them out and put them somewhere else...🤔
Where are they at the moment? Mine are at the edge of the bed by the path through to the back garden, so pretty shady 🤔 @rachelbrooks

30 Mar 2019 • This has to be the hardest flower to photograph and I’ve been trying since it first started to flower in February. (Label said it was O. cappadocica but pretty certain it isn’t 🤔)
Love the white. Mine are all blue.
I have the blue too Joan and love it but this one was new last autumn. Just hope it spreads like the blue one has 💚 @joannie.a
I'm trying to track down 'cherry ingram'. One of the nurseries that exhibited at Harrogate flower show has it, so I'll hopefully get one or two there @awomanonabike
Ooh! I don’t know that one. It looks lovely. Named after the man who ‘saved’ the Japanese cherry trees I presume 🤔 PS Beth Chatto has it in stock... @gardengimp
Yes apparently, and good for him 😊 thanks for the tip off, although Primrose Bank in York also has tons of the kind of plants I like, and they'll be at Harrogate, or I can pick up from York which is also close to me. I've become a nursery snob now, I shun all garden centres and only part with my hard earned at dedicated nurseries, whom I meet at exhibitions. Being a Yorkshireman I like to save on the carriage wherever possible 😄 @awomanonabike
I’m with you on all of that Graham. It’s good to support your local nurseries too 👍😊 @gardengimp
Well that's my excuse when I part with ££ @awomanonabike 😅😊 I'll keep Beth in reserve just in case!
Oh! I am loving this now it has really established itself 🤍 #omphalodes-verna-alba #omphalodes-verna
It’s lovely 😍 the sweet little flowers make it look like blossom has fallen over the foliage 💚🤍💚
So delicate
It is lovely isn’t it and yes, I can see that too 😊 @kez001uk
Very but it’s actually a tough little thing 💪 @joannie.a
I’ve not seen a white one before Jacqueline , lovely
I hadn’t either until I spotted it at Harrogate Flower Show a few years ago. I love the blue one and it does so well in my garden that I just had to give it a go @joanboston
