Four years ago, I planted about ten winter aconite in my Front Border. Each year, the patch has slowly grown through self-seeding. Pictured are some of the newest that are just starting to come up. I'd guess the total number in the patch is now somewhere around thirty. Aren't they cute?

They are cute. I don't use too many bulbs because of the voles. Hate to feed those critters.
I almost bought some of these a couple of time during my bulb-buying sprees. after seeing yours, I don't know what I am waiting for.
I hope mine self-sow.
