My first primrose of the season is open. This is Primula 'Windrush'. Primula 'Freedom' and P. marginata are showing colour...this is at least 2 weeks early.

Not sure why I'm showing this shamefully gnarly old
Primula marginata
... I guess only because it started blooming earlier than ever before this year. I first photographed flowers on it April 7th - the last week of April is the more usual bloom time! (Guess I should really take cuttings from this old thing and start it over...)

I like your "gnarly old"
Primula marginata
!
Have few of this kind of Primula, the woodland species are better here.

Lori, I take cuttings or replant deeper, my marginata on a regular basis as they are prone to becoming knarly. My 'Freedom' has the same affliction.
Trond, my denticulata are just starting to expand their leaves...it will be some weeks before I see flowers.

'Allure', a little droopy after the snow.

Primula
'Jay Jay', starting to bloom.

Still snowing, Lori? Seems that the flowers do well anyway.
Here's one small native Primula. It is only 4cm tall with farinose leaves.

No snow since May 29th here - things are looking up! (Mind you, we did have snow on June 4th
last
year... )
That's a charming little primrose... reminds me of our little native ones (which I admit I've only seen rarely!)

From a Chapter member's garden. Seedlings, she tells me, from who knows what.
The Birds have remove most of her tags!

Nice! The second one seems to be
Primula sieboldii,
or close to it.

Yes, I think she has a lot of sieboldii in her garden.
