The marsh gentians are doing well this year in the local peat bog:

I haven't seen the rare white variety this year though, here's an older photo of one:

Wow how pretty - are they scented? They look very like Fresia that have a wonderful perfume.

No scent, these gentians, as far as I am aware. Still pretty though.

Nice photo. From me apvote.

These grow wild? Love to have on my property.

There are several species of gentian, and they are all very picky about their habitat, so it will be difficult, but I've seen it done.

Great job is my friend @ocrdu!

Thank you!
