          Primula floribunda ABFEB2018/03 : 4 posts by 3 authors. Attachments (10) I found these growing on a stone wall next to a water body I know well. I had spotted something yellow from a distance and thinking of Yellow Flax approached the area only to be pleasantly surprised. A new flower for me this year. A few notes: Flowers odourless, ca. 12mm across, 10mm tall, sepals hairy reaching more than halfway up the corolla tube, pedicels 1-1.5cm, leaves in basal rosettes 3.5cm x 5cm. No farina under the leaves but hairs along the veins. Flowers appeared to be both pin-type and thrum-type.
