Lovely Georgie. Your plants are always much more forward with flowering than mine, different parts of the country?
I have several Aquilegia (love them) which were grown last year from the seeds you sent me but not flowering yet.
I have 3 Pulmonaria which Lish kindly sent me last year, they are in flower but the plants are not as big as yours.

Thanks folks.   :) 

Lorna yes, my garden is bound to be warmer earlier than yours. But don't worry, your plants will catch up.   8)

Spade, you are more than welcome to seeds from the Aquilegias.  I'm not sure if Pulmonaria sets seed (this is a new plant on me) but I'll look it up and see and if it does, you are welcome to some of those too.   ;D

Spade I've just checked and it seems that Pulmonaria is propagated by division or root cuttings.  As mine is growing in a pot this might be a bit tricky.   ::)
