Its quite obvious that these primroses, although they look drawn are real. You can see a certain fleshiness to their petals that leave you with no doubt at to how real they are.
The white border however, does make me stop and think - Maybe someone didn’t quite finish coloring them in?
detail like this always stops me in my tracks. I can spend way to much time in the supermarket mulling over a perfectly painted red apple (starking), wondering how exactly, and why, if there is a why, did nature do this.
Check out the amazing primroses from Urban Oasis - they stress this point even more.
Hi Mildred, Thanks for visiting and cross-referencing me here! I’m glad you enjoyed our primrose show and soon there will be more, but these past few days have been too soggy to get any pictures. These are delightful little blooms I’ve tried off and on for years to grow without much success until I chose this spot and this variety of Primula polyanthus … highly recommended as long as one can give them just the right amount of sun/shade and moisture, and from then on, they’re a snap! I’m curious though … can you actually manage to grow them in TX? I figured they’d just curl up their toes and die in that climate, given what I hear from other TX gardeners! Cheers, IVG
Hi Iowa
I don’t grow them :-)! I just look at other peoples with envy!
I loved yours and am looking forward to more photos…
