Oops, apologies for forgetting about the 'no attachments' rule and  
many thanks, Mary Sue, for posting the photo on the Wiki. Thanks for  
your tentative identification too, Jane. Shame that it wasn't  
something fabulously rare, but satisfying to have a name on it all  
the same. The bulbs were growing in a wonderful meadow with  
Helleborus multifidus subsp. istriacus, Paeonia officinalis,  
Pulsatilla patens, a Sanguisorba sp., a Thalictrum sp., an Eryngium  
sp. and a rather lovely species of Crocus, another genus that I'd  
like to get to grips with. Best wishes, Tom
