Which flower is this?

Apolonija7. 03. 2014 10:38:02

Nice!!! Your crocus is named after botanist Guillaume Olivier and is therefore called Crocus olivieri. It grows in the Balkans, Greece, Romania, Bulgaria, Turkey...

Today I just went around the garden and photographed my flowers. Regards

The only flower I don't know is the pink one in the second group, top right. I haven't had oriental hellebore yet.

Apolonija7. 03. 2014 23:48:59

If you saw the leaves, I believe you would immediately know it's hepatica with double flowers. (Unfortunately the new ones haven't sprouted yet.)

Left is cyclamen that blooms in spring-Cyclamen coum

The hellebore is not oriental, but dark red-Helleborus atrorubens

Good morning! The discovery of the first bittercress encouraged me to check them out a bit. They belong among the crucifers, of which I have quite a few among my recognized flowers.

Any moment we'll spot the three-leaved anemone among the ramsons - This one is from Jakoba.

On our meadows the meadow anemone will bloom.

This is the wood anemone - found when going to Kašno planina.

On Malem polju below Vodnikov dom by that stream I found two similar anemones. Practically both grew in water. I couldn't identify them precisely.

By the Kokra river I found last year plenty of bitter anemone.

Good morning, Brane. Three-leaved bittercress- Cardamine trifolia belongs to the same genus as five-leaved, nine-leaved dentaria, bulbous bittercress... that's why some call it three-leaved dentaria. Will there be lots of new photos again today with this sunny weather? nasmeh

Some flowers from yesterday's excursion to Polhograjsko Grmado. The blue flower I photographed by the house under the hedge and don't know where it belongs.

velkavrh8. 03. 2014 18:22:31

otiv, that's common periwinkle-Vinca minor. It's quite common in our forests. I haven't seen it flowering this year yet. On the second-last picture it will probably be sharp dentaria.

otiv8. 03. 2014 18:48:19

Thanks Brane! I was already thinking it was some garden creeper, from the growth site.
It seems to me that vegetation is rushing again with this mild winter. Blueberries already have shoots too, especially on sunny sides. Maybe today's north wind will slow it down a bit, otherwise nothing good will come of it.
Best regards! nasmeh

Apolonija, is your liverwort garden variety? Haven't met it in the forest yet.

Apolonija8. 03. 2014 22:26:19

Otiv, good evening. My liverwort? In the forest besides blue I've already seen purple, white, light pink, dark pink...When they bloom, I'll photo them. This one of mine is almost red and full of petals, of course it's horticultural.
Your periwinkle you can get in nurseries in various colors, from white to red, even with patterned leaves...in nature I haven't noticed such distinct color shades.

otiv, poet, do you know Puntarska??? There this flower "performs". Look:

Le vkup, le vkup, uboga gmajna!
Heja, hejo!
Za staro pravdo zdaj bo drajna.
Heja, hejo!
Zimzelen za klobuk!
Punt naj reši nas tlačanskih muk!
Maybe it's time to "start picking it" even nowadays? nasmeh

otiv9. 03. 2014 07:13:31

Hello Apolonija! nasmeh

Thanks for your explanation about liverwort and wintergreen. nasmeh

I didn't know liverwort is multicolored, well I don't know much else about flowers velik nasmeh

I'll have to learn Puntarsko again velik nasmeh

Nice Sunday to everyone! nasmeh

Today at half past six in the morning:

velkavrh9. 03. 2014 19:35:35

Today flowers from Stiš village and Ambrož, and also up to Jezerce pasture, where it's still real winter. Stiška vas aka Škerjančevo, where I started the hike from, is 850 m altitude.

Common trumpet gentians are everywhere all yellow.

Lapuh grows right along the edges of the road.

I also found a patch of fragrant violets.

In the copse I also find common zimzelen.

Common hepatica delights us in the forests.

On the rocks of Kržišče aurikelj is preparing to bloom. Surprising find.

There is still plenty of black hellebore everywhere.

In the forest above Ambrož we find the great bellflower.

I found this low blue creeping flower next to Persian speedwell.

It is hairy, has interesting leaves. This is thread speedwell. We consider it a weed.

Apolonija9. 03. 2014 21:48:01

Brane, surely among speedwells, could be thread-leaved - Veronica filiformis. Regards

velkavrh11. 03. 2014 04:06:00

I entered it. There is plenty of this small stuff everywhere, not just various speedwells, but often overlooked or we don't know them well enough. On walk today in forest already saw wood sorrels and on meadow little starflower, and first blooming dandelion too.

velkavrh12. 03. 2014 04:23:44

I think we somewhat overlook our mountain and less mountainous especially flowering and also non-flowering woody plants, bushes and woody rosettes. I'll present some.

Common hops many people do not know at all. I found it near my home. It is not very common.

Wild elderberry that I did not know at all about a year ago - this one is from Zelenice.

I also found this flowering rowan on Komarče. This shrub or rather medium-tall tree is quite common in our hills. It is also a medicinal plant. Ripe berries can be used for tea and jam.

This is how the rowan tree looks in autumn when it is full of red berries.

In valley forests and also higher up we will find common buckthorn. It flowers yellow.

Of course we cannot pass by common forsythia, which offers us plenty of these yellow flowers. It is quite common.

We all know the mountain pine. In the subalpine zone it is the main conifer. When spruce and pine end, it is time for mountain pine.

Trdoleska. Here in autumn with fruits it is a common little shrub around our home in the valley.

Common mezereon will soon bloom and is quite common.

Scented mezereon is a low shrublet that smells nice. It is fairly common.

There are several kinds of saxifrage. In the subalpine and higher up, hairy saxifrage is very common. It makes wonderful red carpets among the rocks.

Cluster-fruited rose is beautiful when it blooms.

Common dog rose we collect for tea and jam.

The blue mountain srobot will greet us in many places.

In spring this white-flowering shrub - false medlar.

In autumn the rocks dress in alpine gentian.

We also have an edible fruit - cranberry.

In autumn we will meet this little shrub with red berries - this is how the common mezereon surprises us.

Beautiful white-flowering low deciduous shrub - small ash. I will present the others later.

Apolonija12. 03. 2014 08:14:48

Good that you "took on" woody plants too. White bush at 25 is wayfaring tree, which has very good edible fruits. The common spindle has nice red berries at 29, at 30 is small ash. Regards
