Ficaria verna 'Wild Red Back'



Archive entry 23.03.08

19th March 2005

Found at the same time as 'Wild Holly', in the same hedge, this has the best red backed flower I have seen, however, some flowers are better than others, and some days show it better than others.

If light conditions have been good, and the plant is in thre mood, it can have fantastic scarlet reverses to the petals. The middle picture is perfectly genuine. Under less perfect conditions it can tend to brownish.

The leaves are perfectly ordinary.
