    Nice colchicum photos.  I assume you grow C. baytopiorum frost-free?
    ' Conquest '  is now considered to be ' Glory of Heemstede '.  C. 
byzantinum         ' Album ' has been renamed C. b. ' Innocence ' .  Both are 
truly super.
     Just finishing here is C. szovitzii,  flowering for the first time from 
seed,  that may even replace C. hungaricum as my favorite winter-flowering 
colchicum.  Lovely little goblets in mauvey-pink, much darker on the outside, 
giving a two-toned effect.
