#Primulas and an #AfricanDaisy braving december weather to keep on flowering

Miller's Crimson candelabra primulas just coming into flower near the pond. Behind them you can just see the yellow flowers of papaver cambricum, the Welsh poppy. Until 2011 it was thought to be a type of mecanopsis. See the right hand photo.
The spiky plant is a type of miniature rush suitable for small ponds. Our cats have always enjoyed nibbling this plant, using it as some sort of feline digestive aid. More info in alt text.

The good old fashioned florist's #primulas have changed a bit since I used to buy them back in the 1980's from our local market stall. The intricacies and #colours look more like an impressionist painting than a flower nowadays.

Either way, I can never keep the preened and cosseted things from one year to the next. They sometimes die quicker.

Too much water and they rot. Too little water and they dessicate like a dead sea scroll infront of your eyes.

They work out as very expensive #annuals.
