Some of the smaller plants in our Spring Garden are looking good this week. A circle of the primroses Primula vulgaris around the Oak tree are in full flower now. I planted just six when we moved here and now there are many more. They seed themselves around and I also divide any large clumps after they’ve finished flowering and move the divisions around too. They grow and flower at the same time as Anemone blanda which is a lovely soft blue.
This year I’ve added some Primula ‘Porcelain Blue’. Just six. I’m not sure if they will set seed but we’ll see what happens next spring.
There’s a lovely little viola in flower now too. It’s a new one to me Viola ‘Delft’ which has the most gorgeous rich purple outer petals and a paler centre. Early this morning the dew sparked like tiny diamonds on the petals.
