First blooms of the 2010-2011 season

Hi,
    Attached my first flowers of the season.  These are n. romieuxii grown from alpine society seed.  This is the 4th year from seed.  THe colours range from white to light yellow.  There are another 6 buds still to bloom and the first flower has been out from early November.  One advantage of the cold weather is that the flowers last longer.  Here in N Ireland we are having a cold spell, with frost and some snow.  However they are having lots more snow in scotland and the North of England.
