Most admirable flowers. :D
Some of the smaller Primulas seem to grow quite comfortable on hydroponic islands. Only mice were nibbling on some P.mistassinica.
Primula frondosa and mistassinica from seeds (Gabriela).

They did not take at all last year and finally they were eaten by slugs.
Still they look stronger this year.
I think I missed the right time for the pollen last time, I try now several times a day.

Spring is not easy and fast forward this year. Instead, it brought fresh carpet of snow. Some snowdrops are well advanced as some are not even showing a sign. I hope they all are alive and well though. Some warmer weather is predicted for this weekend, lets hope it is in favor of snowdrops too.

I see it is the same in Estonia as is here this spring. Easter should be warmer, but we'll see. Many snowdrops seem to be late this year, and I think it is because the ground frost came early. This same has happened in years when winter came early.
Your snowdrops look nice with snow, and at least snow protects them from cold nights. :)

Trillium pusillum var. alabamicum is flowering again. I hope this time pollination will be successful. Last year was a complete failure.
Still only two flowers.
Beautiful Trillium Axel! I hope indeed that you have some seeds this year!

I also hope for for many baby lizards, but crows, magpies and buzzards are also in the garden.
So keep fingers crossed.
