Maybe from the American type seeds that your Grandmother had.

Your garden must be looking so wonderful with all these early Springtime visitors showing up in their best outfits.<br /><br />I also loved seeing your photos and reporting of the early morning hare watch. Aren't those long ears and fast moving legs marvelous!<br /><br />Our St Patrick's Day snow forecast turned out to be overstated, but the day was really cold. I elected not to watch the parade this year. xoFranceshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08352407314710067616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1220897337333701839.post-75505690295438148842014-03-17T22:10:54.415+00:002014-03-17T22:10:54.415+00:00Yes, those are the ones I remember!My mother also ...Yes, those are the ones I remember!My mother also had some pale yellow ones.Not primoses (though most people called them that!) and they flowered amongst her cream freesias.
