Great video. I got 2 large drumstick primula for £1 each recently. I have just potted them up to bulk up. Love the propagating videos the more the better! Love the garden tours as well.

Thanks so much. The drumstick primulas are lovely, you got a couple of bargains there. Glad you're enjoying the propagating videos, it's my favourite thing to do and Andrew loves his garden tours. Thanks for your support 🙏

I was wondering how to propagate these beautiful plants. Your videos have answered all my questions and inspired me to propagate the parent plants and sow some green seeds. Many thanks for your help 😊.

You're very welcome Ian, glad the video has helped. Growing them from green seed is so exciting. When they germinate there's a real sense of achievement. Thanks for watching and take care 😊

Yet another fab video! Love learning all your great tips. My Candelabra Primula is full of seeds, I hadn't realised that you could sow them while still green. That will be put on my tomorrow's list of gardening jobs for sure! Thanks so much.

Thanks so much for your lovely comment. Yes, the green seed will germinate after sowing. It felt strange when we first tried it but it works a treat. Happy seed sowing and thanks for watching 👍

​@@MadAboutGardening Thanks to you I sowed 6 pots of green seed this afternoon. I can't wait to see of they germinate. Are there any other plants that give out green seeds that I could sow? Diolch yn fawr from North Wales. :-)

@neryshaynes9149 That's great, you'll have lots of new seedlings popping up soon. Primulas are the only plants that I'm aware of that produce fertile green seeds. Thank you too 😊

I was just wondering if I could divide my Primulas now so your video came just at the right time. The vine weevils killed most of my Heucheras over the years. That's why I bought some new plants last week. Hope they don't get attacked! xxx

[@MadAboutGardening]

Glad the timing was perfect for you Wendy. We brought lots of primulas with us from Sheffield and one by one they were attacked. We gave up until we moved here and could plant in a border again. Hope your heucheras will be okay. We have been asked this week to help plant at Tatton flower show again this year which is fantastic news as it's the last show at Tatton for the next 3 years - the RHS have decided to move the show about to other towns/cities and have it at Tatton only once every 3 years. We're not sure of the details yet so don't know what we'll be doing but glad to be part of it again. Take care xxxx

@@MadAboutGardening That's marvellous news and just goes to show what great gardeners you both are. Hope you both have a less traumatic weekend than the last one! xxx

@wendybartlett6717 We're really excited as we didn't think we would be going this year. Thanks Wendy, we appreciate all your support. Looking forward to a more relaxed weekend. Have a good weekend too, take care xxxx
