1. Iris species nova - Starweaver's Gems from Earth and Sky

378. Fritillaria thunbergii
This species usually has been misnamed and offered as F. verticillata. Flowers
greenish white with light purple-green veins on up to 40-cm long stem, upper leaves
with tendrils. Abundantly blooming stock. 4.00
379. Fritillaria unibracteata
Nice small species from China with small purplish brown campanullate flower on
20 cm tall stem. Looks very similar to F. regelii although from the last I saw only
drawn illustration. Naturally very small bulbs. 15.00
380. Fritillaria verticillata ‘URDZHAR’
Very beautiful form of this quite variable species with straight bell shaped flowers.
Height 50-60 cm. Collected at Urdzhar gorge in N. Tar-Bagatai, Kazakhstan. Something
similar to F. tortifolia from China, but flowers are pure white, in Chinese samples
colour is distinctly pinkish. 20.00
381. Fritillaria whitallii
Flowers broad campanulate nicely green and brown chequered and quite variable
within the same population. This stock is coming from surroundings of Akseki in
S Turkey, is very vigorous and good grower here. 7.00
GALANTHUS
For EU # 382; outside EU # 601. Galanthus kemulariae
My stock was collected just on locus classicus near walls of monastery of St. John
of Georgia, Zedazeni, National park Saguramo, where it makes large clumps in deep
woodland on very steep slopes. Regardless of its taxonomical status (it was included
between synonyms of G. lagodechianus by Aaron Davis) offered plants are distinct
and comes from authentic stock. 15.00
For EU # 383; outside EU # 602. Galanthus koenianus
One of the most unusual and really the rarest of snowdrops grown only in very few NEW
specialists collections and I couldn’t find any offer of it. Having only 5 bulbs to offer
was not easy to decide about offering of this exclusive plant. The most important feature
which allows easy to separate it from all other snowdrops is distinctly lengthways
ribbed under surface of each leaf. Small plant, only 7 - 10 cm tall. Very, very few!
100.00
For EU # 384; outside EU # 603. Galanthus nivalis ‘POCULI PERFECT’
Absolute gorgeous novelty - a must for every galanthophile with absolutely perfect
flowers of “poculiformis” shape (where inner petals are of same size and shape as
outer) but flower segments are purest white and wider than in usually offered forms.
Perfect selection from wild plants in Czech Republic. 25.00
For EU # 385; outside EU # 604. Galanthus snogerupii
Regarded by some as subspecies of G. ikariae, this comes from very uniform popula- NEW
tion on Naxos Island and looks quite different from those grown by me as type G.
ikariae. Leaves are soft green which separates this one from type subspecies. Very
rarely offered and only few to sale.

GERANIUM
386. Geranium charlesii NURATAU
Very distinct and undoubtedly one of the best tuberous geraniums, very floriferous,
compact, completely covered with pinkish purple flowers. It flowers much earlier than
other tuberous geraniums. I recommend annual lifting to provide dry summer rest.
From Nuratau mountains, Uzbekistan. 15.00
387. Geranium charlesii punctata
Most beautiful form of G. charlesii I have ever seen, so different that it is worth a
varietal name. Foliage slightly divided but with very prominent deep reddish purple
markings - spots and lines. Flowers pinkish-purple. (9805) 15.00
