First time I have grown these. Still have another similar variety (blue) to flower.

Lovely rich blue colour Gee. I suppose your woods are still muddy, if not actually underwater!My little pot of these lovely bulbs is just finishing looking good. Some in the ground still to bloom as well. I hope your son in law is making good progress with his sore leg.

Thank you both. Woods are still very muddy, Dorjac, but Millie and I are coping! Just wish the garden could dry out a bit.

Son in law is doing OK and is back at work. He will have to be on drugs for the rest of his life but we are all glad there was nothing sinister underlying the blood clot. The drugs are to hopefully prevent it happening again. He has to have 6 monthly kidney and liver checks but they can be done at the GPs. We are all very relieved.

I thought they looked the same, Amy! Sprtzhenry said these tend not to come up again if left in pots so I am looking around my garden to see where I can plant them later. I think I may have to give over one of my little raised veggie boxes for them just in case we have lots of rain again next year.
