  • Elizabeth Lawson, author of the book, PRIMROSE, graciously took us for a stroll through Treman Woodland Walk and an additional private location to show us the most glorious candelabra primroses in bloom-all the while peppering in personal stories and unique primrose history.

    This lady is enchanting. Thanks to her and you, for guiding us to and through one of her many passions. The video relays a bit of bravery in our direction, to try these flowers next Spring, or in late Winter at the Grocery Store. Her life story so far, is a true treasure. Glad we didn't see any pythons amongst the Primroses. Would enjoy visiting her again. 🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️

    I love it when people are sentimental about nature just like me. Way too many people think bonding with nature over grief or other life experiences is weird, but in reality, the meaning can only be found by those who are open to acknowledging they're part of a greater whole instead of insisting we're all individuals who are deeply misunderstood by a selfish society and have to dig or own way out of the shit.
    Lighten up, allow the centuries of meaning provided by our ancestors adhered to nature to provide meaning to you.

    This is lovely, primroses are the first flowers that we were gifted after moving to Hampshire, UK. They are such bright and happy flowers during particularly hard winters, and very hardy. Planted them into the ground in autumn and they survived frost, etc. Beautiful and generous plants, that are not sentimentally important to me as a sign that God provides and is generous with joy from unexpected places.

    For many, love for flowers are indeed “seeds” planted at some point in their lives including us. It could be a parent, relative, neighbors or strangers that has allowed you to get fascinated, starting with a flower or two 😀

    What a delightful interview! Elizabeth has inspired me to transplant the run of the mill primulas I bought at the nursery for my spring containers into the garden. It just so happened that the containers get morning light and the primulas are still putting out some blooms. Crossing my fingers that I can coax them along.

I love that this woman is so emotionally attached to nature and people in her life. I am so glad I found you! thank you.

    Really enjoyed this video, primula's are one of my favourite perennials. I have to say though that the dell just doesn't look natural. All the flowers look so perfect, all in straight lines not a single broken stem. A bit like a stand at the Chelsea Flower Show. London. A plant that self seeds doesn't sow it's seeds in straight lines. That said, the dell looks amazing.

I watched a UA-camr sell the idea of different kinds of sweet potatoes, especially one Japanese variety, which is whitish on the outside and purple on the inside. Are they really in the Morning Glory family? Would the deer eat that, too? How is upper NY for veggies? Thanks.
