I don't know the names of any of my primula Droopy I just know I love seeing them flower in spring and then again in autumn. They certainly add splashes of colour to a garden when most other plants are preparing for their winters sleep. I really like the colour of the one in your first photograph.

Very pretty Droopy. I don't remember mine blooming in the fall before, but some did this year. I always thought they were just spring bloomers!

Oh, sorry girls, these photos are from spring. I should have emphasized it. The double ones bloom again now, but nothing like the show they put on in spring, I tell you.
