Those are certainly showstoppers! Just gorgeous. Sanguinaria grows wild here, but not double, of course. Hepaticas, the standard pink, blue, white, are popping up all over. Nothing in my perennial gardens but ordinary daffies, chionidoxa, scilla siberica, other bulbs. Waiting to see how some new mini hostas will do.

This is my double bloodroot, Sanguinara canadensis forma multiplex,
that I planted several years ago.  It responded really well to
a an application of 10-10-10 fertilizer last spring and doubled
in size, spreading further into the path at the base of a large
rock.

The photograph just shows a portion of the patch.
