Yes, Spring vetchling is Lathyrus vernus.
The blue one isn't found on the internet as yet - not that i could see.
It's called L.v. 'Katrink's Blue' , a seedling that was found in Katrink
Hull's garden. "Beautiful caerulean blue mixed w shades of violet blue,
this free-lowering plant will knock your socks off in bloom".
I have the species & Albo Roseus. I'll
have to look for your "Regenbogen".
I love these little darlings!

Lil,
Are these all Lathyrus vernus, or are
there other species involved as a number of Lathyrus species are referred to
as ?vetchling?? A brief search shows a Lathyrus vernus
'Alboroseus', a very pretty pink, although I am intrigued by the carmine
red (I have a ?thing? for red).

Think I found a source here for the Coreopsis.
BUT!!! a blue spring vetchling - how great. Must put that on my lust
list. I have a carmine-red, light pink, white one now and love the plant.
When I moved last year it was one of the first things I replaced.
