S. cristata - up to 40cm and 30 blooms. Is this in the wild, or in cultivation, too?

I never got to transplant my Globularia seedlings last season. I still have several in the same 3.5 inch pot.
Globularia trichosantha

Fritillaria camschatcensis - from seed collected on the Kenaj peninsula of Alaska. I had figured that this would also be a dark form, like the ones I grew from Cordova, Alaska, but no.

About as black as they come... a probable Aquilegia hybrid - but mostly Aquilegia kuhistanica.
