There is an 8 page article on colchicums in the latest issue (#191) of the British magazine Gardens Illustrated. Gorgeous photos and honest descriptions: "Don't be misled by names such as 'Violet Queen', 'Lilac Wonder', or *C. atropurpureum*. . . . Most are either pinkish or purplish or pinkish-purplish or albino." I am always happy to see colchicums get some good press, and to compare the photos with what's growing in my garden. I think 'Antares' has a deeper flush in my garden, for example. I also need to find a source for 'Pink Goblet'. -- Kathy Purdy Cold Climate Gardening: providing the information you need to succeed in USDA Hardiness Zones 4 and colder. http://www.coldclimategardening.com/
