Very lovely

Pretty. Love the inky middle and bright stamen.

Beautiful...and sunshine too! It's just stopped raining here. It started about 24 hours ago!

Stunning . . . makes me realise what fun an Alpine house must be 🙂.

Sheilabub for me it comes into its own from now until spring

Karen a little bit of sun but another down pour by morning.

Is your Alpine house cool, or does it need heat Brian?

Gosh! They are really lovely.

Sheilabub There will be heat available if temperature drops below 1c degree just to keep frost out

Brin, how big is your alpine house? Sounds a good idea like Sheila says.

Thanks Brian. I think I might try a few just to brighten up the winter in my greenhouse. Luckily it’s made with cedar so hasn’t yet gone below 10 degrees (I don’t have any heat available).

Beautiful autumn Crocuses, Brian! I love them! :)

Kate there are two, a cedar one 10x8 ft and an aluminium one 12x12 ft they both have there uses for plants other than alpines the large one gets to hot for most in summer the wooden one does not heat up or cool down as rapidly

Thanks Brian, they are both pretty big. Wish I had some space in the back! I do love alpines. I can imagine they both house some really interesting plants.

Kate you can grow many in frames most are hardy they mainly need overhead protection from rain a lot are happy in 3 & 4 inch pots
