It is time to plant out the primulas and primroses potted up from the garden when they finished flowering in late spring. |
|
We have columbines red, blue, and yellow, as we have tropaeolums, leschenaultias, and primulas. |
|
We have two crocuses that have bloomed and the primulas are putting on a brave show of colour. |
|
Seeds of most hardy perennials, including bleeding hearts, columbines, phlox, and primulas, require a period of chilling to germinate. |
|
The garden is full of marigolds, pansies, dahlias, primulas and nasturtiums, as well as shrub roses and climbers. |
|
The white winter flowering heather and pink cyclamen had faded but were soon replaced by violas, primulas and grape hyacinth. |
|
Wallflowers and sweet williams can also be planted out in a mild spell as can other spring bedding such as pansies, violas and primulas. |
|
A month or so ago I called at Browns Nursery in Wigginton to buy a few primulas to give the garden pockets of bright colour. |
|
Their favourite was the rose, followed by hellebores, peonies, clematis, magnolias, lilies, euphorbias, primulas, snowdrops, geraniums. |
|
A month or so ago I called at a nursery in Stroud to buy a few primulas to give the garden pockets of bright colour. |
|
In my garden I am happily growing the common primrose, cultivated cowslips, and primulas. |
|
And everywhere I look there are primulas and polyanthus showing their bright little flowers. |
|
Other jobs include dividing primulas and polyanthus once they have finished flowering. |
|
A plaque was also donated and primulas were planted at the garden which will bloom each year. |
|
In the 18th century, the unassuming, humble terracotta flower pot was used to grow, amongst other things, auricula primulas. |
|
Spring flowering plants that grow well in baskets located in a sunny spot include alyssum, lobelia, pansies, primulas and bedding begonias. |
|
Once the primulas and violas go over, a few annuals will be stuffed in wherever they can fit to give colour over the summer. |
|
A large variety of shrubs have already been planted in the garden including thistles, dogrose, wild primulas and teasel. |
|
Underneath are Himalayan poppies Meconopsis, primulas and trilliums, many of them also collected from the wild. |
|
If primulas are not your thing, plant up your window box with perennials. |
|
|
They are an inexpensive way to brighten up a bare patch in a flowerbed, or put with other spring flowering plants such as primulas in a window box or patio pot. |
|
Yesterday, Val came for lunch and then we went for a run out to Milngavie to the Garden Centre and came home laden with purple and yellow primulas for the balcony. |
|
Three weeks or so ago, I partially emptied a large container we have by the front door to remove the last remains of summer bedding and then fill with primulas. |
|
Hardy spring bedding such as forget-me-nots, primulas, wallflowers, sweet williams and violas can be planted to fill gaps left by the removal of summer bedding. |
|
Old-fashioned double daisies look great edging your cottagey areas, drumstick primulas for damp shade, and so on. |
|
Even without one, you can grow perennials such as aquilegias, anchusas and primulas. |
|
To dig up a healthy clump of hemerocallis or lift fat rosettes of primulas that graced us with a fine show of flowers seems heartless. |
|
Rhododendrons and primulas, asters and deutzias, Father Delavey shipped them back to Paris by the 19th century equivalent of the container load. |
|
The unusual and attractive pattern was first noticed among a crop of blue picotee primulas and breeders at Mr Fothergill's have spent years perfecting it. |
|
From the spiky shoots of garden bulbs to the first tiny leaves of marsh marigolds and lesser celandine, from snowdrops to primulas, things are stirring. |
|
We have two Crocus that have bloomed and the Primulas are putting on a brave show of colour. |
|
In Co Galway, the bog garden at Ardcarraig is planted with drifts of candelabra Primulas, skunk cabbage, Meconopis, Iris and Astilbes. |
|
I also love Primulas, Campanulas and Digitalis but I got totally hooked on Aquilegias. |
|
Primulas and marsh marigolds will fit the bill perfectly, and of course are also perfectly hardy. |
