Candelabra Primroses || Making a Bog Container for Growing them

Welcome to this week's video, where I repurpose a small pond to make a bog container and grow candelabra primroses.

I hope they do well for you Rachel. They look so bright amongst all the greenery. Delightful.

[@GardeningatDouentza]

Thanks, Penelope. Wishing you a great day

[@wandashaw3551]

Hello Rachel, they look so pretty together with your other plants!! I'm happy you didn't give up on growing them. Fingers crossed!!

[@GardeningatDouentza]

Thank you, Wanda 🌼🌻🌷

[@soniewhitten4844]

[@GardeningatDouentza]

Very happy to hear that. Thanks for watching and hoping your container works well.

Hi Rachael, the primrose is so beautiful, I think you are absolutely right in giving it a try in your garden again. I love your channel and your videos.

[@GardeningatDouentza]

Thank you so much. Sending you greeting and good wishes from Wexford, Ireland

I have the same primroses in my creek side garden. They love it there. Hope it works out for you.

[@GardeningatDouentza]

Sounds fabulous 🤩

[@FernandaNascimentoOrchids]

Oh I love it !!! Those are my favourite Primeroses. And now I know why I could not grow the ones I bought when I came to live here. Unfortunately we cannot find them for sale here anymore that I know of, but anyway I would not have space for them. Still, I enjoyed this video very much ❤❤❤

[@GardeningatDouentza]

I think they might be my favourite primroses too and that's saying something because I live primroses a lot. Thank you, Fernanda, and have a great day

[@symonehutchings371]

Mine have grown into monsters. I’ve had to dig them out and will probably have to put them in compost bin !

[@GardeningatDouentza]

That's a shame. What will you plant instead?

[@symonehutchings371]

I think some Autumn colour to be decided once I have visited garden centre.

Frogs will magically appear from time to time, who knows from what mysterious place? Cat's seem to know and also how to make them go. Disappear without a trace. Now here's the thing with Bearded Iris, she was a fine lass all in all. If only she had shaved more often, she could have been more stylish. She also was quite tall.

Imagine Colm Meaney, speaking these words.

Hahaha. You made me laugh out loud.

Hi Rachel, how are the primula plants after a few months in the bog pond? I really like the idea and wanna try it to grow these candelabra primulas.

[@LAllan-ls5er]

I’d like to know how the experiment went too It seems to me that so much of gardening is often an experiment - trial &error .

[@GardeningatDouentza]

The primroses are doing great. Hoping for a magnificent flowering next year.

[@tinajordan6591]

That is a great idea!. My garden is wet in winter and very dry in summer. I have tried growing them too a with no success might try your idea. From where did you get the plants?

[@GardeningatDouentza]

Good plan, Tina. I picked up the plants at the Laois Garden Fair

[@beenajohn7526]

[@sivanagarajah913]

Lovely plants. Do they only flower once?

[@GardeningatDouentza]

Yes, just once

[@chuck-jy7mz]

Greetings do you recommend full sun or can partial work? I'd like to try this, thank you!

[@GardeningatDouentza]

Candelabra primroses should not be planted in full sun so partial shade will work well
