I like those flowers, too. You are broadening my flower horizons. Wish I had the time and patience to have flowers around. I'd rather knit than play in the dirt, but love it when you do. Have a good day. Natural is beautiful. I like those flowers, too. You are broadening my flower horizons. Wish I had the time and patience to have flowers around.

We had two sets of primroses (you know -- the kind you can buy in bulk from Costco) and one pink set we brought inside and one was sent outside. The one outside stayed vivid in color but when the new flowers opened on the one inside (no direct sun) they were much more pastel! Maybe it's my imagination...

It's very possible that the potting soil too acid or alkaline and the plant is sitting at the front edge of a covered deck. Morning sun only. Still it's a pretty little thing.
