Spring 2008!

This is a drumstick primula (Primula denticulata) blooming its little heart out in my back yard, in mid April. This is its third year, and it has really come into its own. The picture doesn't quite capture how astounding it is to see this burst of purple in the midst of what was an overall brown spring garden. An excellent plant to place prominently so that it can boldly declare that spring has arrived!
