A developing love of gardening, that became a passion, and resulted in a small family business. Located on the East of Scotland, outside Kirriemuir.

Primula Denticulate (Drumstick Primula). Photographed today, 27 Mar 2017, at Reedie Cottage Garden, East Scotland. Locally Primula Denticulate are known as "Kirrie Dumplings". I don't know the etymology of this name, other than from this extract from the Scottish National Dictionary - Kirriemuir, where they appear to be commonly grown, and dumpling, from the rounded shape. I love these Primulas as they come in white all the way thru to deep ruby. #spring #primulas #mauve-lilac #kirrie-dumpling

And the bonus is they double in size so you can split them each year and have more plants 💜💜💜
