OK I'm pretty sure now that it's a periwinkle after all. It must just be some non-flowering version.

Maybe its been cut back and is growing leaves before it flowers?

Well, I moved house in May last year to find it already well established (= taking over), left it alone all year and it didn't flower. So I'm not optimistic about this year. But you never know! Every plant deserves a chance.

A friend set this blue flower for me identify. It's growing in a natural woodland cemetary. My first thoughts were either scilla sibericus or chionodoxa or a mutant bluebell.

You're the experts, can you help?

It seems that Chionodoxa are part of the Scilla family. I'd guess at Chionodoxa too. Its not a bluebell.

Sounds good, glory of the snow it is. I can appear all knowing to my pal, although in fairness I did say I was going to ask the experts. Smile
