I'm self-gifting again. We went into Waitrose this morning and they had the most lovely pick-me-up dispays for sale outside. After all the discussions about growing aconites recently, I thought I would have a 5th attempt (!) and try a different location in my plot. Especially as I have 2 flowers in the back border that have reappeared for the second year running, so there is hope yet.
The primroses were just to balance up the numbers....
Irresistible :-)

Thank you all. I love these natural and simple flowers more and more the older I get.

I hope so, too, Janey. Up until now not much luck but lots of hints and tips from SBG and others.
Thanks, Sheila.

I had a border of aconites in Willow Cottage, but one year they disappeared and I never saw them again! You got a bargain there Anget!

Well, I did my food shopping first, Kate and then I popped back for these. I resisted the hellebores!
Rose, Most of mine don't make a reappearance after planting so I may be like you. Last year I said I wasn't going to buy anymore. So much for self-control.

They all look very healthy plants. The spring will soon be sprung
The spring is sprung
the grass is riz,
I wonder where the birdies is,
The birds on the wing,
But that's absurd,
The wings on the bird. Spike Milligan.

Thanks Yorks, Siris and Paul: I will send your 'positive vibes' out when I am planting them.
