    The leaves aren't as thick as cyclamen @SherwoodArrow . It would've been nice, though.

      You do get variation in foliage of celandine, I found one a couple of years ago with very dark leaves.

        Celandine and there are a lot of ones with names where the foliage is non standard.
        There are different shades of yellow, orange and even white. Also doubles and a green flowered one too. Try counting the petals on any you see, there are ones with 8 petals and others with ten

        @Palustris I'll wait for it to flower. It's wedged itself between a geranium and a veronica. If it behaves like the lesser jobs, it's unlikely to do any harm.
