Early primrose
My primroses have lost track of the seasons - I've just found one already in flower! It's the wild P. vulgaris but they seed around apparently happy in a shingle path under the north facing wall of the house, so I leave them be and hand weed it. A few years ago we had them in flower over Christmas and New Year and I thought -that- was early... -- Sue |

In reply to Sue ) who wrote this in
ws.net, I, Marvo, say : My primroses have lost track of the seasons - I've just found one already in flower! It's the wild P. vulgaris but they seed around apparently happy in a shingle path under the north facing wall of the house, so I leave them be and hand weed it. A few years ago we had them in flower over Christmas and New Year and I thought -that- was early... That's what I was trying to say about the Crocuses in the other thread down there ... My two surviving Ipomoea have JUST budded. I reckon they have just a fighting chance of flowering next week before we start to get the cold [shivers in anticipation] |

Here in Notts I have wild violets growing in the gravel paths and in the lawn and today I found a single large ripe strawberry which I scoffed quite slowly.....yummy. Also found about six or so strawberry flowers which I don't expect to mature because the gods of slugs, mice and Tony Bliar all have it in for me !! pp. |
