Primula allionii "Elizabeth Burrow"


First of the Primula allionii to flower this year, hopefully lots more to come. I'll be updating the current Primula allionii pages with new pictures as more plants come into flower.

A small celebration of spring....

ok, I admit it, I succumbed to the tempation of instant gardening with these cream primulas. I put these in a small planter outside the kitchen window. No doubt they have been grown under cover to be in bloom now, certainly they look pristine compared to their snail bitten brethren in the garden. Later they will go out into the top garden, hopefully before the vine weevil find them!

OOps, this didn't post previously!!!
