No really all I do is plant them I always use alittle bit of plant tone on all of my plants.
i get alot of mine on clearance at the end of the season. When they are only a quarter or something like that.
But they are just a beautiful little flower. My giant primroses are very large this year. They like a good amount of shade. I have kinda dappled shade where they are. Are you one to move the plants that are struggling in your yard? I,ve seemed to move them in a very great place the ones that have never blossomed before have blossomed. . Ronna.

Ive killed all the ones I try to grow in the house. lol

Mine are beautiful..I also kill the ones in the house...but..if they make it to buy this time of year and put out..they grow..so well..In checking...the which has a nice smell...try the more Orange..and peach ones...I just love them..Also..when I could get out and trim the spent blooms away...close to the beginning stems..they would rebloom...can't do that now..but try it...you might be surprised...hehe..and mine do bloom..early even though the snow..Maybe I can get you a picture...

I just received one in a trade yesterday. I never knew they could be so pretty. Mine is a dusty rose. :o)
The person who sent it to me said , morning sun only, but I don't have that so it is in a semi shade spot. Hope that works.

beautiful!!!!!!

Plainwell, MI(Zone 5b)

diana your row of primroses is beautiful. they look like a rainbow. I want to get some more I just love all the colors. Most of mine blossom a couple time a year. Ever when they are really tiny there can be the smallest flower on there. I think they are smiling. And you are exactly right about the white sweet woodriff. They really do spread but I love the scent Ronna

Diana those are beautiful, I am going to have to check in to getting some to put around my raised bed in the front or along the front of the bed by the privacy fence.

Thanks for the photo :o)

La Salle, MI(Zone 5b)

Thanks toofew & gardenlady, I can't wait to hold it lol. But with the way the days and weeks and months are flying by, (and the years) I won't have long to wait. It just seems like yesterday, I was holding my grandbabies in my arms and here they all are in there teens and now I am gonna be a great granny... My daughter called night b4 last and said mom you won't believe what Keirsten is craving... ROFL I said BLT's and she said how'd you know. I said OH I have my ways *grinning* (I took her to the store Saturday and she bought bacon lettuce and tomato's.)

gardenlady, my sons BD is Nov 8th, 2 of my aunts bd is on the 6th and my annivesary is the 20th, my mom past away on the 21st and my dads bd is the 22nd. I just hope the summer goes good for Keirsten, and she doesn't have a hard time with the heat.

Well I am off to start my day, hope you all have a good one :o)
