    Hi

    i love your pics, the first plant caught my eye because i have them too im the garden. Just been out the front in my dressing gown to get the label!! It is a primula.
    apparently it likes a sunny, half shaded spot, keep moist and add fertilizer moderately, its frost hardy too.

    I thought i had lost my two from winter as i couldnt see them early this spring but they have started to regrow now:cool:

    Thanks. :)

    Pot came from Pathhead Nurseries in St Monan's.

    I upload my pics to photobucket, resize them, then when you go to post here, use the IMG code photobucket give you and paste it the box that the insert image button gives you (removing the IMG tags that photobucket puts in). There's probably an easier way but it works for me. :D

    Okay, that's just odd... My 3rd pic has increased in size all on it's own. :eek: *goes to photobucket and gives it a kick*

    Oh and I think the label on the pot said Mekon Planters.
