Gorgeous asperula!
It's still very early here, Dirtdorphins - small bulbs are still the main show - but I'll add a few (though I've already posted some of these to the plant entries):
Saxifraga oppositifolia; crocus; Saxifraga kusnezowiana;Pulsatilla patens:

Hepatica nobilis; Chionodoxa; Hepatica nobilis... or maybe H. transylvanica, hard to tell with only dried leaves; Puschkinia:

Synthyris platycarpa; Pulsatilla vernalis; Pulsatilla grandis, I think, though I need to get out there with the map to be sure (and also try to check if it really is what the seeds were claimed to be); Corydalis solida 'George Baker':

Saxifraga oppositifolia - larger flowered form; Smelowskia calycina; Arabis androsacea; Besseya alpina:

The earliest erigerons and townsendias are in bud. Thlaspi kurdicum and T. bellidifolia are starting to bloom - I was waiting to take pictures... and then this happened:
