Peppylady mentioned she liked a primula photograph I had posted. I don't remember which one now so here is a selection.

Stunning :)
Thank you for posting your beautiful prime roses.
I like to try some again. My friend Quenelle who can almost grow anything her and I bought primeroses from the same place and they rotted in ground.
Not sure of the type we got.
I like to try them again.
Does it freeze in Scottland?
exquisite!
Wow! I didn't know there were so many!
Claire I am so envious of you. How I wish I could grow beautiful flowers like that. I loved your pictures in the last blog. Scotland looks so beautiful. Is there any good fishing over there?
Hello Claire. What beautiful Primulas, have you grown them all yourself? You can come and help me in teh garden anytime. Thanks also for posting those wonderful pics of the hills too, no wonder I always look forward to a visit to your blog. I hope you have a happy day.
Horizon, thankyou, a crowd from the Kayak club paddled over to Dunoon yesterday, looking for a whale they said.
Peppylady, it does freeze here, average -5/-10ºc. there are ones which survive year after year and some which don't, we get a lot of rain and my ground is fairly well drained. you could try them in a pot in a shelterd part, I have some which stay in the greenhouse as they dont like to get wet at all.
Kati, thanks, they are pretty.
Wildside, I can get quite enthusiastic about the whole primula genus, luckily theres about a million more kinds to get so I'll always have something to look forward to. . .
Ramblin, scotland does have good fishing, Forbes always trails a line from his kayak and he catches a lot of mackerel.
Bob, I havent grown any from seed, some are splits from a friend and some unusual ones I've bought at the Scottish Rock Garden Society displays, really for very little.
Oh so pretty, and so many varieties. I love primulas. Your photos are gorgeous.
My mum used to grow (in Australia) the kind Alice (A Growing Delight) has pictured on her blog at the moment. They were so delicate and pretty. I've never found that variety over here, but they probably grow well down south.
