I think I've got to find me some of these plants!!!!!

@dirtgirlworld thank you! 🙏☺️

@tinaaune It’s kind of funny because I don’t exactly know how I even got these plants. A few years ago a patch of them just popped up next to my shed & they have been expanding their area a little more every year since 👍😊 (I’m thinking bird droppings might be the cause (?) Birds are wonderful seed spreaders after all!!)

Have u ever harvested these seeds? Willing to do a seed swap?

@Tinaaune I have actually never harvested any seeds from my primroses before! However, I want to save some seed from them this year so I can plant more around other parts of my yard. I would like to see how viable the seeds are. I’ve never done a seed swap but I might consider it! 🤔💭

No pressure, just let me know later if u decide😊

@tinaaune 🙏 I will! I just went & harvested some seeds so I’m going to sow an experimental batch in my grow room once the seeds completely dry here shortly! Stay tuned! 📺 haha😊
