Erythronium helenae has four flowers on a single stem here this year - - - - - - - - It's nice to hear that E. helenae will have more flowers eventually. My seedling plants are blooming for the first time, with but a single flower on each. However, the diminutive, sparkling white flowers are very charming, and well worth the wait since sowing. I also have a number of plants of Erythronium oregonum ssp. leucandrum that have 3 and 4 flowers on the more mature ones. The flowers are large (~9 cm) and cream colored. Here in central Washington (Tumwater), we have E. o. ssp. oregonum, which has one or two large (~10 cm) white flowers. Though still cold, two days of sun have been most welcome. Some of the species tulips have opened fully and reminded me why I grow them. Yea!! Dave Brastow (zone 7A)
