:: primula ii ::

I'm not sure if I have the right name for this delicately-coloured flower, which I know of as a polyanthus?  I believe it is also sometimes called primrose. Wikipedia tells me it is a primula cultivar.
The name primula comes from the Latin primus, which means first - because these are the flowers that are among the first to bring in Spring...
...today we spied these in a lovely planting outside Willowbank Wildlife Reserve with clusters of richly-coloured snapdragons...
