First one's Chionodoxa lucillae, not sure about the others - need closer view of 2nd one's flowers, might be Tritellia or Pushkinia or Ipheion

The first one is chionodoxa, the second is ipheion, maybe, and the third, not sure, could maybe be vinca.

Third's definitely not Vinca - on the other hand, I don't know what it is otherwise.

Now im having an arguement with my boss over this. I say the plants in pic one are Chinadoxa, he says they're scilla.

His arguement is that the chinadoxa he planted in another garden are at least 3 weeks away from flowering whereas his scilla he put in are now in flower.

Any suggestions and im sorry to hijack the thread with this !!!

Thats why I enjoy Goy Andy....we all learn something!

Does the 2nd one belong to the wild garlic family? and could the 3rd be a pulmanaria(soldiers & sailors)?

hi 1. is chinodoxia forbesii, 2 is Ipheon uniflorum and 3 is bugging me as my brother grows it and i cant remember. its not pulmonaria the leaf is wrong .

chinodoxia has been in flower for me and the scilla is tight bud. scilla are a different shape and colour too.

the flower for 3 has a look of a silene/campion/catchfly but I m not aware of a blue one. Is it connected to the larger green leaves poking up?

I have another pic of no 3 Seaburngirl -I'll post it as another question. It's growing under some lovely purple hellebores which may be the big leaves hanging down and to the left is what's going to be a tall campanula, when it gets growing again. This plant has leaves that look edged with small reddish bristles. Some of them are clasping the stems somewhat and others are the ones poking vertically upwards, just behind the flowers.
