Primrose or Primula?

I was walking the dogs on the fields at the back of our house yesterday when I came across just one small primrose or Primula plant. No idea how it got there.

[Newbank Lass]

Suggestive of wild primroses. From my extremely limited knowledge I think the wild version are much smaller than the less wild version but I'm sure someone in the know will fill us in and correct me on this!

[Kristen]

So beautiful. I have not seen that flower before.

[Sue Le Feuvre]

A primrose is a primula. Primula Vulgaris. So this is definitely a primula but not sure if it's the common primrose. I do know it's a beautiful shot!

[Kristina Olsen]

These pretty flowers are wonderfully sharp. Love the texture on the leaves too

[Denise Wood]

Beautiful capture :)

[Susan C Clow]

I often wonder about this - they look the same, don't they? Maybe some one knows the difference. This is beautifully taken!

[Susan]

[David Hobbs]

Well whatever it is it sure is beautiful ... and this is a fine image. Nice work.

[gilesey]

it's lovely...funny how plants just seem to start growing like that...probably something to do with bird droppings :-))

[tomzimmerman]

A wonderful, crisp shot. I really like the texture on the dark green leaves and the perfect light.

those flowers are so pretty!

[wakarusa]

Beautiful! I imagine they are a sort of primrose. We used to call only the yellow ones primroses and the other colors were cultivars. I suspect we are seeing escapes these days

[Carol]

Lovely shot!

[Steve]

Fav - wonderful close up

I know that flower and shot are gorgeous. It's still just heavy white snow here in New England, south of Boston. A sight like this would be so wonderful.

[Baguette2]

What a beautiful capture.

[Helen]

Primula vulgare or Common Primrose is a wild plant and a lovely one in the spring. You have captured it well here

[Lynne Hart]

Beautiful, i always think of primroses as being pale lemon, but this could be a cross with a garden primula. Lovely shot.

[Elyse Klemchuk]

Look at these! The flowers are so delicate and pretty!

They have the appearance and delicacy of the wild primrose which I prefer, but the wild primroses I know are a softer yellow. A beautiful photo.
