Thanks for the nom LG. I just call them drumstick primula - not sure of their proper name  |

Post by Ladygardener on Mar 25, 2011 17:14:16 GMT
I've looked them up and it's Primula Denticulata but I'm sure my Mum called them something else. Goodness only knows what she called them, maybe just primula or something. ;D

Couple of daffs... Toby the First  Such a dainty little daff, your purple flowers are so lovely too, I've forgotten their name,  my Mum used to grow them.   Lovely delicate colours in this one Jasmine, the combination of the Drumstick Primulas & Jetfire is great too, I might pinch that idea i221.photobucket.com/albums/dd161/GWDAdmin1/Smilies/Default/smiley.gif Jillyx |

Thanks for the nom Jilly  I'd like to say the primula/Jetfire combination was well planned but it was luck rather than judgement  ;D By the way - the little hibiscus 'stick' you sent me is doing really well and now has 2 little leaves! It makes me smile every time I look at it - I knew it would come good! ;D I inherited lots of those from my Mum Geranium - mine aren't quite out yet though. I have no idea what they are either! |

I like that colour combination in the second to last pic Jilly - little daffs and pulmonaria - very pretty.

Mine have nearly all gone over - they've been out for weeks, but it's too warm for them now  |

Just goes to show the difference in temps; from one part of the country to the next mine have just opened in the last week or so! and I still have blocks in the shade to open. |

Jas, I don't think that double Narcissus can be 'Replete' - it's too old, and 'Replete' is relatively new, isn't it?

Post by Jasmine on Mar 27, 2011 9:03:12 GMT
I can't find a year of introduction for Replete Geranium so I'm not sure how old it is i221.photobucket.com/albums/dd161/GWDAdmin1/Smilies/Default/undecided.gif I was googling a completely different daffodil yesterday and that picture came up and caught my eye. I've no idea how old the ones my Mum gave me are - she was just thinning out clumps of daffs from their old garden. |

Geranium & Jas, I thought your unknown one looked very similar to one I have - double Flower Drift Found a link which shows some www.degroot-inc.com/product_info.php?products_id=794I've been dead-heading lots of them this aft, but there are still lots more to come. Thought these made a nice little flower cluster  x Tig |

Hmm, I can see a similarity with the bottom photograph Tig.
Your daff cluster is very pretty.

Those are lovely Geranium, do you ever pick your flowers? I'm sorry, LG - I've only just spotted your question, and the answer is 'No'! I like them in the garden, and they last longer there , too. |
