Bloom

Cheltenham, Glos.

This little primula has been flowering all year long; from spring last year right through summer and autumn, and the frost and snow of recent weeks, there have always been little pale yellow flowers peeking through, whatever the weather. As a salute to the yellow part of the February Challenge therefore, I give you: my hardy primula!!!

Nice shot. Would have had to 1m tall to be "peeking through" where I am ;)

Wow...I can't even keep these things alive for one month let alone 12.
