I bought this primrose a few days ago in a supermarket. In reality it's more lilac than blue. I'm going to replant it into my garden later - I hope it will flower next year again.

Kilka dni temu kupiłam tę prymulę w supermarkecie. W rzeczywistości jest bardziej fioletowa niż niebieska. Planuję ją przesadzić później do ogrodu. Mam nadzieję, że za rok znowu zakwitnie.
Very pretty! I bought some this year too. Right now I have them in planters in my front yard, but I'm going to plant them into soil later. They should come up year after year.
ReplyDeleteThat's what I hope for - that they come up and flower year after year :)

ReplyDeleteis it the flower that produces primrose oil?
No, unfortunately the oil is made of an evening primrose (oenothera in Latin) and it's a different plant.
DeleteThere are many primroses in the world. My primrose is primula polyanthus; and primula vulgaris, for example, has many medicinal properties.
Beautiful plant!
