I defo like those, Paul!
Does the white one have a yellow centre, too?

16 Apr, 2013

 

Yes,,,,,as I recall Mouldy.Don't know if u remember but this is the plant I showed a few weeks ago with it's buds a furry waiting to flower.You said you wanted to see what it looked like in flower! Probably just unlucky with my white one( and u with the red one) then Surreylad.
thanks Paul.

Yes I think mine was positioned bad to be honest Paul.

16 Apr, 2013

 

Ah, now I remember, Paul.
Well worth the wait, I'd say!
Surrey, on 1st glance at your comment I thought you'd texted that your's was possessed bad.
Thought maybe you'd did for someone, then planted over their grave, only to end up with haunted flowers.
Get some sleep, Mouldy old chap. LOL!

18 Apr, 2013

18 Apr, 2013

 

Will do...it's a new one at I bought last autumn.....I had one that I planted at the same time as this one about 9years ago but it died!

18 Apr, 2013

 

they actually look so delicate and tender paul, amazes me how they even get through our winters, shame when they die and we are waiting for the first signs.

18 Apr, 2013

 

Aren't they just amazing.....these are exceptionally beautiful Paul!

Thanks Janey.

Yeah, caught up on my zeds, Paul. Lol.
I do like the pusatilla, though.
Is the centre of the white variety yellow, too?

20 Apr, 2013

 

Yes, they do have yellow centres Mouldy.....strange, I'm having a sense of dejavu(no, I know that's not how it's spelt) I'm sure I've answered this question before but I looked on the comments and, no i haven't! now that's spooky!!

21 Apr, 2013

 

You spelt deja vu correctly. Lol.
Some put in a hyphen.
Odd you should mention it, though. Seems like I've asked the question before.
Maybe a different flower?

22 Apr, 2013

 

Forgot to ask, Paul...which pusatilla is this one?
Please don't say "The purple one" Lol.

20 May, 2013

 

Pusatilla Vulgaris.....but there are different colours so yes the purple one!!!!! I forgot to put up a picture of the white one so hope it survives till next year so I can take one!

21 May, 2013

 

Thanks for the info, Paul!
Just planning for next year.
