Don't have an answer to that one, Graham. I do recall some years ago at Berkshire meetings, there was one man who insisted on sitting in the front row where he frequently napped. I considered a talk a great success if I could manage to keep him awake -Original Message- From:

Could you please post some pictures, either on alpine-l or the NARGS Forum? My garden is locked in by snow and now ice coming on top of that. It would be so wonderful to see some pictures of spring happening somewhere! Anne Spiegel Hudson Valley, New York State Z 4b/5a no one really knows

Re: [Alpine-l] Eranthis hyemalis - lawns

Lucky you, Marcia! I'd love them to behave like that here but there are only a couple of places to their liking. I've had a lot of success moviing them right after bloom and dividing them. It's quite a nice spread now, just not where I can see it easily. Anne Spiegel Zone 5a(?) mid-Hudson

Re: [Alpine-l] The Dolomites- NARGS Forum link

Paige, thank you very much. We were incredibly fortunate last year to see Ranunculus seguieri as I've never seen it before. Absolutely pristine. Two weeks before we arrived, there was a big snowstorm in the alpine areas, and that was why R. seguieri was so perfect. It's a snowmelt plant.
