Thanks, Arlene.
Other than the spring bulbs and the hellebores, I'd say our most useful spring perennials are the primulas, pulmonaria and brunnera.
Like you, I particularly love primulas. Your blue, yellow centre, primula (Polyanthus type) is beautiful.
Pictures today.
Polyanthus type primulas.
Brunnera 'Alexander's Great'.
Sanguinaria canadensis 'Multiplex' (double bloodroot).
Anemone robinsoniana.
The picture just doesn't give due credit to the lovely light lavender colour of the flowers.
