At least 5 flowering, one in bud, a few finished flowering. Many leaves. I think these were C. sylvestris, but what is the difference between C. sylvestris and C. seminuda?

Always difficult to identify from photos. C. sylvestris has smaller flowers than C. seminuda on shorter stems and with shorter sepaline clubs (2-3mm) that are usually yellowish.
