Malenka encouraged me to check how it is with my pasque flowers.

In Slovenia we can find as many as ten. As Malenka mentioned, we have three subspecies of the spring one - common, grayish and white-stamened. Probably I have seen all subspecies, just don't know the differences. Still I have photographed eight of them. Haven't found the shaggy one yet (found in Smrekovško Hills - don't know where that is) and the Carniolan. From literature I traced two hybrids - one called Trnovo pasque flower - cross between trumpet and spring. Around Idrija there's also a cross between auricula and Carniolan - at least by picture it's gorgeous - blue-violet with whitish dotted center.

On the entire Alpine area many more pasque flowers grow that don't grow with us. In literature we find entire-lobed, Chinese white, beautiful, Piedmont, sticky, rounded, entire-lobed and hairy. Some of these I even photographed in Italy and Austria - just can't distinguish them.

Beautiful primrose or auricula-Primula auricula.1
Wulfen's primrose-Primula wulfeniana.2
Trobentica-Primula vulgaris.3
Smallest primrose-Primula minima.4
Common spring cowslip-Primula veris subsp. veris.5
Tall primrose-Primula elatior.6
Long-flowering primrose-Primula halleri.7
Mealy primrose-Primula farinosa.8

I regularly check what nice and educational Malenka presents us and of course comment a bit.

Braun's cinquefoil I've seen. Should review recorded material from past years. In Austria saw glacial one (doesn't grow here), which also has separated flower petals or it was Braun's.

Speckled wolfsbane usually grows higher than fragrant. She thinks I'm mixing them.

Spring hairy-head is rarer than alpine which is common. Should check my material if I photographed it.

Monstrous gold saxifrage can't mix with others because characteristic leaves - common though.

Many raspberry species - rock one deceives us with its red fruits.

Can't distinguish sorrels.

Know thermophile willow, not the interesting thyme one.

Burning rockcress apparently I need to seek on Velika Planina, missing from my rockcress pics collection.

Honey bell and Kerner's bladder find before Zelenica around Vratača hut. There every year nice lady's slipper and Bosnian helleborine.

Noric clover right under hut on Črna Prst - there also silver bloodwort.

About spikes I've written. Tuberous must seek on Karst.

Many-flowered broad-leaved helleborine around Vodnikov dom.

Common veinwort belongs to false hellebores. Think it's grass, but no.

Know aquilegia-leaved meadow-rue, not very common.

Silvij, your find surprised me. Do you know if the site is already known to botanists from before?

Velkavrh, don't know which you mean by glacial cinquefoil. Write Latin name. In Alpine flowers book I see only similar as snow cinquefoil (Potentilla nivea), indeed somewhat like Braun's, but petals not separated as you say.

Don't know if really need to comment everything ... or interesting for wider public what you've seen/photographed and what you'll still have to ... no hard feelings.

Malenka, site not known before. When asking local botanists at discovery what orchid it is, find was big surprise. Also described in PROTEUS magazine issue 6, February 2020.

Silvij, thanks, I'm glad you published this wonderful discovery in the magazine! I get to Proteus less often (or with a delay), but regularly to the botanical one - Hladnikia. I'll try harder in the future, now that I see it's also online.
I'm in touch with Idrija amateur botanists (we've often botanized together), but this year's corona has quite disrupted those contacts. I hope next year will be better.

malenka, I saw it on a hike this year in Italy -glacier cinquefoil--Potentilla frigida. At least that's how Dr. Lovka translated it -found in Hoppe's handbook. It's supposed to grow only in the Central Alps on dry, non-limestone soils between 2500-3500m among rocks and scree. Growth is scattered.

Velkavrh, Potentilla frigida is much hairier than Braun's. Anyway, if you don't have a key, it's hard to identify like many of these similar small cinquefoils.
It would really be nice to post a picture, but even then identification would be just guessing, since individual details and their size aren't visible in the picture (hairs often need to be viewed under a magnifying glass).
